CFBA-FM

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Delete. This is a low-power tourist information service, which is a class of radio station that WP:NMEDIA deprecates as not inherently notable just because it exists. Such stations are now exempt from having to have a CRTC license at all -- which means that in the absence of reliable source coverage about the station in media, we can no longer verify even the basic fact of whether such a station is still operational or not. And if we can't verify it anymore, then we can't keep it anymore. Bearcat (talk) 16:08, 7 February 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Delete; there's no presumption of notability for tourist information stations, licensed or not, and it seems unlikely that CFBA-FM will ever attain the coverage in reliable sources to meet the general notability guideline. (There's not really much that can ever be said about a station whose license (when it was still required) mandated that it could only ever air "pre-recorded messages for visitors to the Quill Lakes area informing them of birding, hunting and eco-tourism opportunities.") -- WC  Quidditch  &#9742;   &#9998;  01:19, 17 February 2017 (UTC)
