The station was launched in 1998 by Tri-Tel Communications as CJWL-FM 104.9, and moved to its current frequency in 2000.[1] In 2003, CJWL and its sister station CHPB-FM in Cochrane were purchased by their owner, Haliburton Broadcasting Group.[2]

Haliburton changed the station's callsign to CFIF-FM in 2005, enabling Evanov Radio Group to take over the old callsign for its own new CJWL-FM in Ottawa.

On April 23, 2012 Vista Broadcast Group, which owns a number of radio stations in western Canada, announced a deal to acquire Haliburton Broadcasting, in cooperation with Westerkirk Capital.[3] The transaction was approved by the CRTC on October 19, 2012.[4]

Current operation status of CFIF is unknown. It is believed that CFIF is a rebroadcaster of CHPB-FM.
