CFIQ 640 "Global News Radio" Toronto, ON

CFIQ 640 "Global News Radio" Toronto, ON ranks 38 among 259 stations in Canada. High enough that the country hub carries it in its own tables, and far enough from the head that the neighbours below are a genuinely different set of stations from the famous ones.

CFIQ 640 "Global News Radio" Toronto, ON has no language recorded in the directory. We do not infer one. Guessing from the country would put every station in Canada on the same shelf regardless of what it broadcasts, which is exactly the kind of filled-in blank that makes a directory untrustworthy.

The news corner of Canada's dial is three stations deep in this snapshot. Small clusters like that are usually the most rewarding thing on a country page, because they are what the national broadcasters at the top of the list are not.

At 128 kbps the stream is on the better side of Canada's dial, where the median is 96 kbps. Not dramatically so, and bitrate is only one of several things that decide whether a stream sounds good, but it is the one the directory records.

The stream is served from corus.leanstream.co, an address one other entry in Canada uses as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.
