Welcome to the Irish Radio Canada Website.
We are proud to share our Internet Radio Station. In 2005 we commenced
On-Air broadcasting with CHIN 97.9FM producing and presenting The Gaelic
Hour as a weekly show. in Sept 2016 we launched this new format.
You can now enjoy a selection of music every day and we will be able to
expand on the number of hours of interviews, as time goes on.
I would like to encourage you to submit your music selection and
hopefully I can find what you like in my library.
The Archives section of the site will continue to provide access to the
Gaelic Hour shows since 2006. Twitter, Facebook page and group will
become more relevant in communicating and I hope to increase the use of
Instagram as time goes on.
If you have some suggestions, please visit the contact page and send on
your ideas.
The 11 years on air have been fun, but the effort in raising the large
sum required to buy the time has become more onerous and the online
station offers the opportunity to increase content and reduce costs.
You can listen to the station using a variety of tools. The player on
this page may be the simplest. The links below provide additional
choices of players. Also, you can use your Smart Speaker to ask Alexa or
Google for "Irish Radio Canada from TuneIn"
I hope you enjoy and continue to listen.

Margo - The Queen Of Country & Irish
Margaret Catherine O’Donnell on February 6th 1951 the second eldest of five children.
Margo always sang as a young girl in the church choir and concerts in local halls.
In 1964 she was joined The Keynotes,a local showband and would sing locally at weekends and on school holidays.
Margo always wanted to be a nurse, get married to a nice man, settle down and have three or four children. That was not to be!
She recorded my first single “Bonny Irish Boy/Dear God” in 1968 with The Keynotes. She recorded our second single “Road by the River / Eyes of a Child” the following year and it was a huge success.
In 1969 she was signed by a Dublin promoter and was offered a secure wage and a good future. Margo & The Country Folk were born.
Margo has received many awards and accolades over the years.
