I will mostly stick with CTV because I like Vassy Kapelos and while I have never been a fan of the NDP's policies, I do like Thomas Mulcair. He is a very good debater and his political analysis and commentary is excellent.

I agree!

And the Jays are already down 6-0 after 3 1/2 innings.

Still, great to see the team back in Toronto, hearing Buck and Dan, and I enjoyed the Lion King troupe’s rendition of O Canada.

Very good, indeed!

Congratulations, Anthony!  I can't believe Storm is 14 years old.  I remember when Anthony first brought him on as a little pupper.  Just love Storm!

This goes back a long way. Here's a post I made on August 24, 2021. Its subject title says it all. 

Will Somebody Please Give CFRB's Robert Turner His Own Show?

I only wish they had!

Me too!! Loved listening to Robert Turner.

Good on Turner! He's been at the station a long time, working his way up, and deserves it.

I'll second that AspectRatio. I'd love to hear him on-air more too and not just on a weekly roundtable discussion.

p.s. the early years of Moore In The Morning when Robert was part of the MITM team, and he was pretty much a constant, almost hourly presence, piping up when he felt like John needed/deserved it, were so so good.

I totally agree!!

I used to visit Giant Tiger in cottage country and I liked it very much!  I wish Giant Tiger had more locations in Toronto.  I could use one in the 'west end'!

I didn't catch who'll be taking over the first two hours of the afternoon drive instead of Deb but wouldn't mind if it was Scott or Mark.

John Moore revealed on Monday that John Tory will be taking Hutton's regular shift this week.

I would have preferred Scott or Mark!

I have been with Bell and now with Rogers.  I just got notification that my Rogers bill is going up an additional $8 for my internet service.  I have been unhappy with both! My question is - can they increase your bill when you are under a contract ?  We need more providers!

My kids used to love The Flintstones and The Jetsons.  Whoever wrote the Jetsons must have had an idea as to what would be happening in the future because that is exactly what is happening now!

Unfortunately, there are only 2 providers...Bell and Rogers.  They should be taken to task.  We need more providers.

I think Scott Reid or Thomas Mulcair would be perfect to fill that empty seat when John Moore is away.
