CBC Radio 1 [local times] [12/24-12/25] http://www.cbc.ca/radio/Christmas2009.pdf tnx Fred Waterer
Fred`s seasonal info and linx: http://www.doghousecharlie.com/seasonal-programs-2008/

[MORE may be added; see the 2007-2008 link abottom; if searching for
updated 2008 schedules, remember that in 2008 Xmas is on Thursday!
Dates given here are generally local time as on the schedules rather
than UT, and may be changed by stations as time goes on. Of course,
many other stations have holiday special programming, but these are
the ones we have found with special pages about this. Some stations
do not bother since they have day-by-day specific date schedules. A
number of stations on last year`s roster have not been found with 
holiday special pages this year, even when starting a re-search from
their home pages. This info is provide pro-arte, and is not an 
endorsement of any particular religion.]
