Looking for information on a recent find

I found this last week (for only $40!!!),and having never actually seen/heard of CCM,began researching the brand on the. ANY information on it (eg: vintage,model,general info,I won't need to know "what's it worth",I'm not a bike flipper,but that would be cool too,LOL!).

 

It's in overall decent condition,obviously has been poorly repainted at some point (and partially stripped of said paint in some areas),and is a fun ride. Rear hub is by Suntour,and no the light doesn't work (not sure if it's original to the bike either). This wasn't bought as a bike to fix and resell,I don't do that (wouldn't be able to part with one after lovingly spending that much time on it,LOL!),but I buy what I like,and I liked this one's lines when I saw it.

 

Thanks in advance for any information you guys may have to share,it's much appreciated :)
