He's trying to garner public sympathy for cuts to the CBC by retiring....after 40 years at the CBC. Poor baby. Hope he isn't forced to eat cat food.

This is terrible news! Let's hope the CBC can find someone else to whine on behalf of Canada's criminals!

Well I'm not a big CBC fan but he's just a employee so whatever. I don't like management big wigs and the entitlement crowd.

You're not a "casualty" of job cuts if you quit. Sheesh. Nice spin.

Geesh, maybe he should have worked until he was 71, this coming May 29th


The guy is almost 6 years past retirement as it is, boo freaking hoo. Most people want to retire earlier, while they still have the option to buy green bananas. His pay must have been rather lucrative to keep at it the extra 6 years.

Ive never heard of the guy.

Then again, I dont watch CBC.

But, at 71, I dont think his "sacrifice" is much more than a last shot at some airtime.

What is a gemini award??? The guy has a ton of them
