CHMP-FM (98.5 MHz) is a French language talk radio station serving the Greater Montreal Area and licensed to the off-Island suburb of Longueuil. Owned and operated by Cogeco, it broadcasts with an effective radiated power (ERP) of 100,000 watts as a Class C1 station, using an omnidirectional antenna atop Mount Royal, at 298.9 metres (981 ft) in height above average terrain (HAAT). CHMP's studios and offices are located at Place Bonaventure in downtown Montreal. The station identifies itself as 98,5 FM and is one of the few full-time FM talk stations in North America to broadcast in stereo. The station has a few music blocks, during weekends. Notable personalities include popular morning drive time host Paul Arcand, midday host and former Minister responsible for Democratic Institutions and Active Citizenship in 2012 under Pauline Marois, Bernard Drainville, weekend morning host Paul Houde, former NHL referee and late-night sports talk host Ron Fournier and popular journalist Patrick Lagacé, who hosts the afternoon drive time show. Former mayor of Montreal's Le Plateau-Mont-Royal district and environmentalist Luc Ferrandez and former Mulroney government diplomat Luc Lavoie also appear daily as collaborators. Gilles Proulx was also heard on the station from 2004 until his retirement on August 7, 2008.
