DescriptionTo its far-flung listeners across the Mackenzie Delta, CBQM is more than a simple radio station. It's a dependable pal, a beacon in the storm of life and a resilient expression of identity and pride. Whether it's reporting wolf sightings or broadcasting bingo games, airing debates on uranium mining or dedicating a hurtin' country tune to some heart-broken local, citizen-run CBQM has been serving the Teetl'it Gwich'in community of Fort McPherson for almost three decades. Dennis Allen tips his hat to the "Moccasin Telegraph" with CBQM celebrating the vital role of storytelling and music within his culture, while crafting a detailed and generous portrait of life in a northern town.
