The Chicoutimi *station*, CBJ, neither moved to Ontario nor was 
privatized. It moved to FM, where it continues to operate as a 
Radio-Canada "premiere chaine" outlet.

The 1580 *frequency* was granted in Cobourg, Ontario for an upgrade to 
1450 CHUC, but the station subsequently applied for (and was granted) a 
move to FM instead. The 1580 frequency was then applied for by 1350 CKDO 
in Oshawa - I can't recall if it's been granted yet or not. Both the 
CHUC and CKDO apps called for 10 kW day and night. I don't recall if it 
was DA-1 or DA-2.
