History
Joco Communications was incorporated in 2003 when Cormier was granted a license to open CFSF-FM in Sturgeon Falls. The company was granted a second license in 2007 to operate a station in Espanola.
The company also applied for a new FM radio station in Sudbury in 2007, although this application was denied.
On November 13, 2008 the company applied to operate a new radio station in Gravenhurst. This application was denied on June 1, 2009.
On May 20, 2010, the CRTC received an application by the Haliburton Broadcasting Group to acquire Joco's CJJM-FM in Espanola and received approval on August 12, 2010. In September 2010, Joco Communications announced a tentative deal to sell CFSF-FM in Sturgeon Falls to the Haliburton Broadcasting Group, which received CRTC approval on February 21, 2011.
After selling the two stations, Cormier ran as the Liberal candidate for Nickel Belt in the 2011 election, but lost to incumbent Claude Gravelle.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“It gives me the greatest pleasure to say, as I do from the bottom of my heart, that never in the history of the country, in any crisis and under any conditions, have our Jewish fellow citizens failed to live up to the highest standards of citizenship and patriotism.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
“The myth of independence from the mother is abandoned in mid- life as women learn new routes around the mother—both the mother without and the mother within. A mid-life daughter may reengage with a mother or put new controls on care and set limits to love. But whatever she does, her child’s history is never finished.”
—Terri Apter (20th century)
“The history of men’s opposition to women’s emancipation is more interesting perhaps than the story of that emancipation itself.”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
