Hmmm....to make room for Matt Galloway?
I would hope not.
I really enjoy Matt Galloway and consider him uniquely suited to his current gig.
I think he does a good job of blending 'cool' with insightful and engaged in urban affairs and culture.
The current format of local TV news is not at all like Metro Morning, and to me, his unique voice would be lost in that changeover.

Speaking of which, I think CBC should seriously consider some format modification for its local news. Something to differentiate it.
The current format in the market leans more than ever to 'if it bleeds, it leads' and to endless weather and live hits.
I'm not suggesting they go 'Studio 2' ish; but a local format heavier on interviews, investigative coverage, and culture would be welcome.
They could really carve out a niche, rather than competing, often unsuccessfully with private alternatives.
