Majic 100 / CJMJ-FM

Majic 100 is one of Ottawa’s most popular radio stations, and is often named the city’s #1 FM station. Their slogan is «Today’s Soft Rock», and they play adult contemporary music. I have noticed, however, that in addition to some soft rock favorites, they’ve started to play a lot more Top 40, or in their case, Top 20, than they used to.
Their morning show is really popular, with weather and traffic. The John Tesh show is also a long-​time favorite, and they even do an entertainment segment in the afternoon for all the latest Hollywood gossip, drama, and «news».
Since it’s officially holiday season, they’re playing 100% Christmas songs, and even advertise it as «Ottawa’s Christmas Music Station». Some love it, some hate it. It’s just too bad they don’t have a mix of a few Christmas songs here, and some of their usual music there. I do enjoy the holidays, but hearing the same jingles over and over is enough to make your head explode.
They’re really involved with the community, with charity and fundraising drives and local events. They run a lot of contests, including winning tickets to Sens games, prize giveaways, and even mini vacation getaways.
Their request and contest line is (613) 750‑1100.
