CIMX Top 89 of 2010

Serving the Windsor ON-Detroit MI market, this station is defintely hard rock leaning and has a knack for avoiding playing any Canadian content that is actually worthwhile except for Arcade Fire's "Ready to Start", which doesn't appear until no. 77 -- not even Metric, who had a major hit on the alternative charts, "Gold Guns Girls".
