On November 1, 1948 CBI, a Trans-Canada station first singed on air for a potential audience of 100,000 at that time in Cape Breton. Barry MacDonald was managing the station. Year 1962 witnessed the merger of Dominion networks and Trans-Canada; however the programing by Dominion remained a part of the CBI.
