Daybreak (CBC) is a daily, early morning radio program broadcast by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation in Montreal.[1]
In 2006, Dave Bronstetter stepped down after hosting the program for 11 years; he was replaced by Mike Finnerty.[2]
Nancy Wood was hired as host in 2009. Her dismissal in 2010 was the subject of some controversy in Montreal.[3][4] [5]
