CBKA-FM is a Canadian radio station, broadcasting the CBC Radio One network at 105.9 FM in La Ronge, Saskatchewan.
Until 2009, CBKA had a local news bureau serving Northern Saskatchewan, and produced the regional noontime show Keewatin Country, but otherwise aired the same programming as CBK in Regina. In the CBC's service cutbacks announced in March 2009, the operation in La Ronge was entirely eliminated, making CBKA a full rebroadcaster of CBK.[1]
