CJOI-FM is a French-language Canadian radio station located in Rimouski, Quebec.

Owned and operated by Astral Media, it broadcasts on 102.9 MHz with an effective radiated power of 33,600 watts (class B) using an omnidirectional antenna.

The station has an adult contemporary format and is the newest member of the Rock Détente network since June 2005, when a deal was made to transfer ownership of some stations between Corus and Astral. Originally a Corus station, CJOI is now owned by Astral Media.

Originally known as CFLP when it opened in 1978 as an AM station on 1000 kHz (and identified itself as "Radio Mille"), the station moved to the FM band in late 2000, due to serious problems in nighttime coverage resulting from a very directional signal necessary to protect WMVP 1000 in Chicago, Illinois. The station switched to its current CJOI-FM call sign when it moved from AM to FM and changed its format from full service to adult contemporary (and abandoned its Radiomédia affiliation).
