I guess I wasn't surprised to see the usual suspects - CFRB and AM640 - go into reroll mode on Family Day Monday morning. 1010 early risers were greeted by the ubiquitous "Best Of John Moore" at 6 AM, followed by the usual CP24 simulcast.
AM640 was even worse - not only did they air a Best of Greg Brady but they didn't even hit the news at the top of the hour.
Only 680, CBC Radio1 and CKTB were actually live Monday morning, with local newscasters providing updates on open and closed attractions and the big dig out repercussions from that near record breaking storm on the weekend. (And special kudos to 610, which managed to field a very entertaining AM drivetime show, including a host, a contributing producer, and even a sportscaster.)
I don't begrudge the hard working morning crew getting an extra day off, with listener levels likely low. But Family Day isn't a regular holiday - it's a made up provincial day off that pointedly does not include those covered under federal jurisdiction, which includes broadcasting. So technically, no overtime. And because it's Ontario-only, many people still had to work on Monday. They should have been better served with live radio.
