My guess is they are waiting to see what the investigation says to determine if the co-hosts John and Ryan I believe they were can come back. The assumption is Q wants to keep them on air but they don’t want to commit in case the investigation doesn’t look favourably on them as well.
So my best guess is they will not announce a new show until after the investigation is over.

You could be right. But Corus has many stations out west and I would be very surprised if they can't pick someone (and maybe they already have) from that talent pool who would be happy to transfer to the #1 market in Canada. We just don't know who that is yet. 

You'd think, but unfortunately radio is destroying its own pipeline. Next similar station is ROCK 101 Vancouver, whose morning host (Willie) has spent almost his entire career in the market and is likely close to retirement. Q107 Calgary? Oh, it's Willie. Edmonton? Willie. And so-on and so-forth for other markets and dayparts.

In a parallel universe, Jay Michaels would be a perfect fit for the morning show at Q107.

Having read numerous newspaper articles and tweets over the past few months about how unfriendly and downright hostile the Quebec landscape has become to Anglophone Canadians, I wonder if Jay might end up back in Toronto at some point.

East coast folks have a reputation as the friendliest people in the world, and having lived there for eight years, it's deserved. And growing up on the West Island in Quebec I can also attest to the unpleasant experiences English speaking citizens regularly encounter.

Jay sounds great on CHOM and has made the morning show his own but I can't see someone as affable and pleasant as Jay being willing to stay on in a city where he and his wife are treated by the majority of the population as unwelcome intruders.

That show is great, and from what I've seen the listeners are reacting well.

T&J just aren't the right guys. If you have to have an interim period, Q is doing it right. Familiar solo hosts and lots of music.
 

BIG 107.1?

Nope. Corrected. London, not Kingston. 
London's station is still simply identified as FM 96.
