oronto radio station Q107 says that host John Derringer, who was on hiatus after a misconduct investigation was initiated by parent company Corus Entertainment earlier this year, is leaving his show Derringer in the Morning.
The rock station posted a statement detailing the change on Twitter, saying that Derringer and Q107 have “agreed to part ways, effective today.”
It went on to state that the “‘independent investigation initiated by Corus remains ongoing.”
Derringer first went on hiatus after allegations of verbal abuse and gender-based discrimination were raised by Jennifer Valentyne, a high-profile broadcaster who used to work there.
Valentyne first made accusations in May, when she posted a widely shared video to Facebook condemning the way she was treated by her former employer and by co-workers.
I understand that The Canadian Press has made several attempts to contact Derringer for comment, but he has not responded, I read here Q107’s John Derringer Abuse Claims. Corus said that Valentina raised her concerns years ago, and the broadcaster took steps to address them at the time. She also noted that the Canadian Human Rights Commission process surrounding the allegations is ongoing.
The host’s removal from the program is a punishment for violating the program’s rules.

It’s disheartening to hear about Valentina’s experience and the ongoing investigation. It sounds like Corus did take some action initially, which is positive, but it’s crucial to see the Human Rights Commission process through. Hopefully, this will lead to a better understanding of the situation and prevent similar issues in the future.
