Congratulations Shaun! Much respect and gratitude for you, one of the best storytellers I've met.
I started at CBC Fredericton ten years ago!
I spent two years away from journalism, but still filed a few stories for CBC, so I'm counting them :)
Love and thanks to all those who have supported me from NB to SK to Northern Ontario. I'm so, so lucky to do what I do.
On International Day against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia, here's your friendly reminder that visibility and solidarity matter!
Love, your friendly (queer) local radio producer.
Powerful. A must-read.

This is a beautiful story, written and reported with such care by our colleague @jmigneault.
We'll be airing his interview with Mark Asselin to end the show at 5:50 on @UpNorthCBC

We also recently had @mimiobonsawin in to chat about her new album:

We've had some guests stop by over the last couple weeks, and it feels/sounds SO GOOD to have people in the studio to chat with @jonathan_pinto
For me, it's like the difference between a handshake and a hug.
Here are our latest guests @HonestHeartCo

Great piece by my colleague @Samjuric on this International Women's Day

We had Benveet 'Bean' Gill on the show on Friday to talk about the new CBC TV show, Push. She was awesome - a memorable interview for me.
Huge Harry fan. So glad to hear of your progress @HarryForestell

Hey northern Ontario! I'm pursuing a story on medically assisted dying and eligibility for those suffering from mental health issues. Is this something that impacts you? Do you know someone who is considering MAID? PM me or email [email protected]. Miigwetch, thank you, merci!
That's a good point!!
@UpNorthCBC @jonathan_pinto @YardCBC @AngelaGemmill honestly preferring the cold over snow! Really cold temps usually mean sunshine…and clear roads! Driving in snow stresses me too much.
Just got a pass for @KiviPark and @ScienceNorth for myself and my partner, and I've never been so sure that our move to Sudbury was the right choice.

I'm searching for a tattoo artist in Northern Ontario to interview about their cultural tattooing practices. While I appreciate there are many talented artists, I'm most interested in people whose practice is rooted in tradition and/or ceremony.

Extreme cold today right across the north. Bundle up, plug in your car (don’t forget to unplug it), and check in on each other. – at Thunder Bay, Ontario
Weather alerts Ontario North - Extreme cold conditions early this morning and possibly continuing into Tuesday morning with wind chill values near minus 40. In some areas the cold will continue through the week. #ONStorm ow.ly/q64g50MEiK3
