CKLM is a Canadian radio station, broadcasting at 106.1 FM in Lloydminster. The station airs a mix of classic and active rock branded as 106.1 The Goat.
Licensed in 2000 to Peace River Broadcasting, the station was acquired by Stewart and Anita Dent (shareholders of Peace River Broadcasting) in 2001 through their numbered holding company 912038 Alberta Ltd.
The station launched on May 18, 2001. The station added a rebroadcaster at Bonnyville on August 22, 2003. The Bonnyville transmitter subsequently became an independent station, CFNA, on September 28, 2007.
The Goat is one of the most critically acclaimed small market stations in Canada. Recognition includes the 2008 Canadian Music Week award for Small Market Station of the Year, as well as the National Association of Broadcasters "International Broadcasting Excellence Award" which The Goat was awarded in both 2003 and 2008. Those two recognitions make The Goat not just the only privately-held radio station in Canada to ever receive the award, but the only station worldwide to be recognized twice.
