Calgary Radio Stations Go Silent: Rogers Job Cuts Hit Hard

Two Calgary radio stations have gone off-air following a wave of job cuts at Rogers Communications. The layoffs, part of a broader restructuring, have affected dozens of employees in Calgary and many more across Canada. The stations, whose formats and names were not immediately disclosed, went silent as Rogers eliminated positions to streamline operations. This move reflects ongoing challenges in the Canadian media industry, where advertising revenues have declined and digital competition has intensified. Affected employees face an uncertain job market, while listeners lose familiar voices and local content. The cuts are a stark reminder of the volatility in broadcasting and the need for workers to stay adaptable.
