CFVD-FM applied twice to the CRTC, in 2006 and 2010, to add an FM transmitter at Rivière-du-Loup, Quebec which would operate at 102.5 MHz; they were denied both times.[3][4]

To highlight its 30th anniversary, the station took on the name Horizon FM in 2008.[1]

In 2012 the station was acquired by a group called Attraction Radio, who later morphed into Arsenal Media. Since 2021 Arsenal Media has incorporated the station in its Plaisir branding, which designates pop and nostalgia-oriented content.[5][6]
