CFIF-FM is a Canadian radio station, which broadcasts at 101.1 FM in Iroquois Falls, Ontario. The station airs an adult contemporary format branded as Moose FM.

The station received approval from the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to operate a new low-power English language FM radio programming at Iroquois Falls on September 28, 1998,[https://crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/1998/db98-458.htm Decision CRTC 98-458], New FM radio programming undertaking, CRTC, September 28, 1998 which was launched in 1998 by Tri-Tel Communications as CJWL-FM at 104.9 FM, and moved to its current frequency at 101.1 FM in 2000.[http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2000/DB2000-154.htm Decision CRTC 2000-154] The frequency change from 104.9 MHz to 101.1 MHz would eliminate the interference from CBON-FM-21 at 104.9 MHz in Gogama.

In 2003, CJWL and its sister station CHPB-FM in Cochrane were purchased by their owner, Haliburton Broadcasting Group.[http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2003/db2003-580.htm Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2003-580]

Haliburton changed the station's callsign to CFIF-FM in 2005, enabling Evanov Radio Group to take over the old callsign for its own new CJWL-FM in Ottawa. The "IF" in the CFIF-FM callsign stands for Iroquois Falls.

On April 23, 2012 Vista Broadcast Group, which owns a number of radio stations in western Canada, announced a deal to acquire Haliburton Broadcasting, in cooperation with Westerkirk Capital.[http://www.broadcastermagazine.com/news/westerkirk-capital-acquires-vista-and-haliburton-broadcast-groups/1001105335/ "Westerkirk Capital Acquires Vista and Haliburton Broadcast Groups"] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130923021334/http://www.broadcastermagazine.com/news/westerkirk-capital-acquires-vista-and-haliburton-broadcast-groups/1001105335/ |date=2013-09-23 }}. Broadcaster, April 26, 2012. The transaction was approved by the CRTC on October 19, 2012.[http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2012/2012-577.htm Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2012-577] Various radio programming undertakings – Acquisition of assets, CRTC, October 19, 2012

Current operation status of CFIF is unknown. It is believed that CFIF is a rebroadcaster of CHPB-FM.
