Whatever Happened To CFRB's Ryan Doyle?

You may remember the name Ryan Doyle. He hosted a talk show at CFRB for 25 years. Last I heard of him he was working for some betting place, because he was always a big fan of gambling. 

But now it looks like all bets are off. Doyle is no longer a visible face, but he holds a pretty powerful position. His LinkedIn page indicates he's now the "Deputy Chief of Staff for Issues Management and Training at Office of the Premier of Ontario."

Well, good for him. He went from a business that could be hurt by one bad rating book to a job that could be wiped out by one bad election result.

But I just have one question. What, exactly, does the "Deputy Chief of Staff for Issues Management and Training at Office of the Premier of Ontario" do? I have to admit I have no idea. Sounds impressive, though.

Does it show on LinkedIn how long he has been at Queens Park?  because I heard about this maybe 5 years ago.

It says he's been there for three years and six months, although he had other roles before he assumed the current one.

He likely does varying things. Most of which are probably legal.

Edit: without decent FOIA access we will not know until long after the fact.

I believe his long winded title means he is second banana at training PR staff in how to handle PR problems for the Ford bunch

AM radio, sports gambling, Ford government.

Corporate needs you to find the differences between these pictures…
