The Toronto Waterloo corridor was BIGGER than Silicon Valley EVEN before Wall Street fund managers ordered the tech monopolies to indiscriminately fire 250,000 coders, designers, artists and cybernauts.

Toronto Waterloo is Bigger than Silicon Valley.

You can move to Canada, if you have a job offer.

Hey maybe now is time to cement Canada as the telecommunications, aerospace, computing, AI capital of the world? Mr. Trudeau?

Big Announcement: My last day with WCTV / Gray Television will be Friday, Feb. 10, and Sunday morning was my last weekend newscast. I will be moving into a new career field: IT. I will start my new career in Tallahassee, and I look forward to working in this exciting and expanding field.

I also look forward to spending more quality time with my family, among other things.

I would like to thank those who have mentored me throughout the years, and mentored me in this transition.

A big thank you to station management for giving me a chance when no one else would. The people at WCTV are what make it amazing, and I will truly miss that the most.

Finally, and a big thank you to the viewers who trusted me to educate them about all things weather (and tech) and give them critical weather info when it was needed the most. It was an honor to serve you all.
