Description
February 6 Winnipeg CHR began broadcasting the weekly radio series "Gay Christian Forum" [later called "Gaysweek"] on CJUM-FM. The program originally focused on gays and spirituality, but expanded to include news, reviews, and interviews. The program lasted until mid-1980, when it formed the basis for the formation of the Winnipeg Gay Media Collective (WGMC). (See also September 6, 1980.)
