History.
Licensed to Harvard Broadcasting on May 28, 2007, the station was originally scheduled to launch on 92.3 FM. However, it applied for a change of frequency to 96.3 FM, citing the potential for third-adjacent interference to CKBL.
On April 9, 2008, the new station signed on and began stunting with Christmas music as "Santa FM" in preparation for its official launch; the campaign also featured publicists parading the streets of Saskatoon in Santa Claus costumes. On April 11, 2008 at 3:00 p.m., the station officially launched with a Top 40/CHR format branded as "Wired 96.3".
On November 16, 2012, Harvard laid off CFWD's on-air personalities and announced that Wired 96.3 would sign off that night at midnight; the station returned to "Santa FM" for the holiday season in preparation for another change in format scheduled for December 26. On December 26, 2012, at Noon, CFWD flipped to an adult hits format, branded as "96.3 Cruz FM".
