DJ Lyall

Wayne Morris

Wayne has been active in and passionate about community radio since the early 80’s starting at CKMS-FM (U. of Waterloo), then moving to Toronto to start producing shows for CKLN-FM (Ryerson U.).  The first few years resulted in a series of radio art and experimental music programs and shows focused on the home tapers network (remember cassette tape?). In the 90’s, Wayne produced shows exploring criminality in high places, uncovering lies of the mainstream media and exposing malfeasance of the pharmaceutical industrial complex.  In loving memory, CHCR keeps this bio of Wayne up for people to see.

DJ Travel Bridge

Bridget Haworth became involved in “Independent Media” in early 2000. She realized that media is owned by those interested in manipulating public opinion for their own gain. As a response, Bridget co-produced boilingfrog.ca, a 2-person operation dedicated to promoting, producing and distributing “Independent Media” Canada-wide for 9 years.

CHCR is a small spark among media giants but is one of the few places left you can speak freely.
