Murray Sherriffs
Proving once again that when you leave Corus, you join Astral, and when you leave Astral, you join Corus*, Murray Sherriffs, the popular morning man on Mix 96, who was canned from the station when it rebranded as Virgin Radio in January, will return Monday as the morning news anchor on CFQR 92.5 the Q (formerly Q92).

Sherriffs's departure caused a lot of negative reaction from listeners, who saw it as the biggest mistake of the rebranding.
Sherriffs will join morning host Aaron Rand, who has been riding solo since fellow hosts Paul "Tasso" Zakaib and Suzanne Desautels were ditched in August. Another move that caused a lot of protest from listeners.
Also joining the team is fellow Astral castoff Sarah Bartok, whose previous job was at Astral's CISL AM 650 in Vancouver. She'll be the traffic reporter. She replaces Shaun McMahon, who moves from traffic to show producer.
