About CBC Radio 1 Ottawa (CBO-FM)
CBC Radio 1 Ottawa, broadcasting as CBO-FM, is the public broadcaster’s news and talk station serving Canada’s capital, and it streams free online through the CBC website.
As part of CBC Radio One’s national network, it carries the full slate of CBC’s flagship programs alongside local Ottawa coverage. That mix is the point: national public affairs, journalism, and conversation, with the regional layer that a purely national feed can’t provide. If you’re looking for chart music, this isn’t it. The format is spoken word, built around news, current affairs, and documentary-style programming.
You can listen via the stream on cbc.ca. The station broadcasts in English, which puts it on the opposite side of the dial from Radio-Canada, CBC’s French-language service that also has a strong presence in Ottawa given the city’s proximity to Quebec.
