About Our Show
Tune in to Metro Morning weekdays from 5:45 - 8:30 a.m. on 99.1 FM in Southern Ontario.
Metro Morning is the audio version of Toronto's Yonge Street: a central urban artery that cuts through the heart of the city and beyond; connecting people, neighbourhoods, communities, diverse pockets and populations.
The program expresses the realities of life and experience in Canada's largest city through a weave of news, current affairs and the information you need to start your day, including consistent and predictable weather and traffic.
Metro Morning presents the city's rich texture through music, poetry, drama, spoken word, live performance and humour.
Metro Morning is Toronto - its face, places, voices and stories.
