Sportsnet Radio is the branding used by two sports talk radio stations in Canada owned by Rogers Radio. The stations (which maintain their former The Fan moniker in their names) were re-branded to increase their synergy with the co-owned Sportsnet television channel, amid indications that TSN would be launching a radio network of their own (which TSN indeed did, beginning with the conversion of CHUM in Toronto to TSN Radio 1050).

The two Sportsnet Radio branded stations are:

  • CJCL, Sportsnet 590 The Fan, in Toronto, Ontario
  • CFAC, Sportsnet 960 The Fan, in Calgary, Alberta
  • Rogers also operates the Sportsnet Radio Network (previously known as The Fan Radio Network), which is a syndication service distributing, among other programs, Toronto Blue Jays baseball, Prime Time Sports, the Montreal-based Sportsnet Tonight with Elliot Price, and the daily short-form feature Grapeline with Don Cherry and Brian Williams.
