## Resource

Rogers Sports and Media has shut down Sportsnet 960 The Fan, Calgary’s beloved all-sports radio station, as part of a sweeping wave of closures affecting six Canadian stations. This marks the end of an era for Flames fans, who for decades relied on the station for late-night games and passionate sports talk. Once a news affiliate since 1922, the station evolved through country music before becoming the Flames’ home in 2001. Its closure signals a major shift in how local sports are consumed, leaving a void in a community that valued its connection and conversation. Rogers thanks listeners and staff, acknowledging the difficult but necessary move in an evolving media landscape.
