CJVD-FM is a French-language Canadian radio station located in Vaudreuil-Dorion, Quebec.

Owned and operated by Yves Sauvé, it broadcasts on 100.1 MHz using a directional antenna with an average effective radiated power of 1,000 watts (class A). The station has an adult hits format, including music from 1955 to 1995 and identifies itself as CJVD 100,1. It started operations on September 29, 2008.

The station was given approval by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) on July 6, 2007.[1] However, as the station's owner and licensee, Yves Sauvé, had requested the 106.3 frequency, which was instead granted to Canadian Hellenic Cable Radio for a multicultural station, Sauvé's approval was made conditional on submitting a new application to use another frequency. His application for 100.1 MHz was granted on May 2, 2008.[2]

CJVD-FM serves Vaudreuil-Soulanges, the West Island communities of Montreal, Valleyfield, Beauharnois and Chateauguay.

The radio station was founded by Yves Sauvé with the collaboration of Richard Noël, two well-known broadcasters in Quebec. These professionals worked during many years for important radio stations before the foundation of CJVD-FM in September 2008.
