Jim Connell

“Lifer” in the broadcasting Industry working as a DJ, News Anchor and Director for stations in Toronto, Montreal and a major network in the U.S.

Single. With two grown phenomenal kids.

Lives and breathes the music of the 60s, 70s and 80s. Also, loves most things with a motor especially airplanes and motorcycles.

Hosts a light hearted (some would say light headed!) morning show on CFQR600.

“Morning is no time to be hitting people over the head with heavy stuff. Just basic News Weather Sports, some upbeat tunes and laugh or two... Save the heavy thinking for later!”
