Dead air here in Vancouver. Poof it's gone as of 9am PST. No warnings. No goodbyes. No thank you's. BC's Highest rank station in its category by a mile. This reeks of corporate board room fandangling.

Bell - Lets' Talk. :roll:

What the actual fuck? TSN was raking the money in. I will never understand how corporations operate.

Dunno - I heard 3 markets were hit. Erik, was Montreal hit as well?

I've been tuning into this radio station for 20 years almost every day from wherever I have been in the world. This defies explanation.

Winnipeg gone too. Montreal survives only because they tried to format switch it a few years ago and got slapped by the CRTC for it.

Bell Media can eat a big fat turd. Killing media in this country to save a few bucks for shareholders.

Can’t begin to find the right words for those that lost jobs today in Hamilton, Winnipeg and in particular Vancouver.

Just saw Jay Onrait’s emotional homage to his friend Dan O’Toole and their longtime producer. This is madness.

Correct, the three stations chopped: Hamilton’s TSN 1150, Vancouver’s TSN 1040 and Winnipeg’s TSN 1290

Feckin' 'ell, they got rid of Natasha too!? Hope NHL Network or NBCSN (also not long for this world though) picks her up.

I hope next year around this time when Bell pulls the "Let's Talk" campaign that the people of Canada tell them to fuck all the way off.
