The CJCY callsign was once used by another radio station in Medicine Hat, now called CFMY, from 1982 to 1998. That station has no ownership association with the current CJCY.
In January 2018, the station announced its sale to Rogers Media.[2] The sale to Rogers was approved in early summer of 2018, and CJCY transitioned to Rogers, including moving into the Rogers building, in August of that year.
In January 2021, the station flipped to adult hits using Rogers' standard "Jack" branding.[3]
