This sub-series consists of records created or acquired in the course of the administration of radio stations established or maintained by the Oblates in the Province of Alberta-Saskatchewan. The radio stations allowed for access to the various Francophone communities served by the Congregation in the west. As with publishing companies and newspapers, the Oblates of Mary Immaculate collaborated with the Association canadienne-française de l'Alberta (ACFA), and in 1944, the Radio Committee of the ACFA and Edmonton citizens started the fundraising for a completely French radio station in Alberta.

Radio-Edmonton Ltd. was incorporated on September 25, 1947, with Bishop Ubald Langlois, Leon Omer Beauchemin, Louis Phillippe Mousseau and Alphonse Brosseau as initial directors. Under the auspices of the ACFA and the Oblates, its objective was to obtain the license for a radio frequency and to inaugurate and operate a French radio station. The license was granted on May 12, 1948 to establish a private commercial broadcasting station at Edmonton, Alberta, with a power of 5000 watts on the channel 680 KC. The first program of Radio CHFA (680AM) was broadcast November 20, 1949 from Garneau Theatre, Edmonton. The station was affiliated with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) French language network in the west. CHFA continued to broadcast to predominantly Francophone communities under the auspices of Radio-Edmonton Ltd. and ACFA until April 1, 1974, when the radio station was sold to CBC / Société Radio-Canada.

The series consists of recordings created in Alberta, Saskatchewan and the Northwest Territories and beyond the geographical limits of the Oblate Vice-Province of Mackenzie. The recordings were created primarily at institutions the Oblates established or lived in: churches, missions, and First Nations communities. The recordings were created, collected or acquired by the Oblates of the Vice-Province in the course of their administrative and evangelization activities, and therefore the themes of the recordings are wide-ranging. The records include a number of religious themes and document the personal thoughts and viewpoints of a number of Oblates and highlight First Nations cultures and languages. A large number of the records were created by Oblate researchers, likely Robert Le Meur (1920-1985), and Maurice Métayer (1914-1974), who served in the Vicariate of Mackenzie.

Le Meur and Métayer conducted their own research and collaborated on various projects. They both served in various missions in the north, Le Meur from the 1940s to the 1980s, and Métayer, from the 1940s to the 1970s.

Specifically, the Le Meur and the Métayer recordings relate to research conducted by them in the north. The priests sought information on the culture, lives, history and religion of the Indigenous peoples, and they recorded the interviews, songs and stories of their research, providing insight into the lives of the people of northern Canada. There is a vast wealth of their written research in the Oblate fonds as well, related to genealogies, grammars and published stories and other writings.

Specifically, the records in this sound series consist of educational and historical themed material, recordings of masses, religious and secular ceremonies, lectures, sermons and religious commentaries, as well as radio broadcasts of songs, and recordings of stories and interviews. The stories, interviews and songs are often in First Nations languages, and English and French. Records are both created by amateurs, and professionally produced.
