CFGX is a Canadian radio station, which broadcasts at 99.9 FM in Sarnia, Ontario. The station broadcasts an adult contemporary format with the brand name The Fox.

The station was launched with the callsign CJFI in 1981 by Rogers Communications, the owner of the city's existing CKJD. The station adopted its current call sign in 1988.

CKJD and CJFI were sold to Maclean-Hunter subsidiary Blue Water Broadcasting in 1987. When Rogers acquired Maclean-Hunter in 1994, the Blue Water stations were spun off to Blackburn Radio.

The Fox FM programing is enjoyed across the river in the Port Huron, MI area as well.

In July 2008, the station applied to increase power.
