For over 30 years, Broadcast Dialogue has served as Canada’s trusted source for broadcast industry insight, connection, and recognition. Founded by radio veteran Howard Christensen, the publication was born from a deep understanding of the industry’s importance and the need for a credible, consistent voice covering its evolution.

That vision continues today under the leadership of Shawn Smith | President + Founder of Momentum Media, who has stewarded Broadcast Dialogue’s growth and its enduring role in the Canadian media landscape.

In 2020, that legacy took on a new dimension with the launch of the Broadcast Dialogue – Canadian Radio Awards, an initiative rooted in tradition, community, and excellence. The awards were created to recognize the exceptional work happening across Canadian radio, from small-market innovators to national teams and to honour those who embody the spirit of the medium: connection, creativity, service, and impact.

Since their inception, the Broadcast Dialogue – Canadian Radio Awards have become more than an event, they are now a tradition. A rallying point for an industry that continues to adapt and inspire.
