It's sad that he's leaving but I have to support the PD's efforts to keep misinformation off their airwaves. Hopefully Kevin come to his senses and is able to return.

I have met Kevin, and I like him, but he has said things on the air that really make me angry. Things that are objectively false. Ex. “just asking questions”’about Sandy Hook as a false flag operation, antivax, 9-11 conspiracy theories. Grant (one of the people that built CJSW) was in a tough spot, and didn't challenge him like he should have.
I don't think he should come back - this is has been going on for too long, and this is a community station with a special mandate. He won't change his stripes.
