CIDC-FM (103.5 FM, Z103.5) is a radio station licensed to Orangeville, Ontario. Owned by Evanov Communications, the station broadcasts a rhythmic contemporary format targeting the Greater Toronto Area.
CIDC has historically been known for having a dance and electronic-leaning playlist. CIDC held a 2.0 share of the market in Numeris's Spring 2018 ratings.[1]
Due to its signal location, the station rimshots Barrie, Kitchener, and Downtown Toronto. Its studios are located on Dundas Street West in the Eatonville neighbourhood of the former city of Etobicoke. The station has often marketed itself as a Toronto station, and was reprimanded by the CRTC for not specifically devoting enough on-air news and information to Orangeville. The CRTC has denied repeated applications by Evanov to modify or re-locate CIDC's signal to increase its availability in Toronto.

The Orangeville area was struck by a massive F4 tornado on May 31, 1985, and the community felt it did not receive adequate warning. As such, an application was made to the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) for a radio station to serve Orangeville. CRTC approval was given for the station on September 10, 1986. The station's frequency allocation was moved from Guelph to Orangeville to allow for the service. CIDC was launched on May 1, 1987 on 103.5 FM with an ERP of 50,000 watts from a site located northwest of the town. The height of the hill (527.3 m) and tower (98.1 m) made the station antenna (0.6 m) higher above sea level than the CN Tower. The format carried on the station was 70's/80's hits and was branded as DC 103.5.
