Gene Watson’s Canadian Connections

840 CFCW, Alberta's Country Legend

On Wednesday 18 September 2024, Gene Watson reflected on past shows in Canada.

Jackie Rae Greening of Edmonton, Alberta's 840 CFCW

‘We haven’t been able to get to Canada in a few years, but I saw that Ms. Jackie Rae Greening of Edmonton, Alberta’s CFCW radio station won the ‘Personality of The Year’ Award recently.

Jackie Rae booked us for shows and was a great host.

Then I saw this old photo taken with Ronnie Prophet (Sunday 26 December 1937 – Friday 2 March 2018) back in Toronto around 1980 at his TV show.

Ronnie was a huge fan of real country music.

We love our Canadian fans and hope we’ll be back to see you one of these days!’
