Shane Hewitt departed The Shift, which aired overnights on Corus talk stations across the country, in February. It marked the last live overnight network show on the major stations in Canada and now everyone has rerolls. 

I thought I recognized the voice when I turned on 1010's The Rush on Monday. With Deb Hutton filling in for Jerry Agar, they needed a fill-in for the afternoon show. And Hewitt seemed like the perfect fit. He started the show with Robert Turner acting as a kind of co-host, but he disappeared after 4:30 PM and Hewitt finished the show on his own. He'll be doing it all week. 

As far as I know, Hewitt is a West Coaster and it sounds like he was doing the show from B.C. and not Toronto. He did a pretty good job overall and I wonder if he's in consideration for the gig full time.
