    John’s show unfortunately has become the Rush Limbaugh of the North. It’s all division,all the time.

    If you aren’t a fellow right wing zealot, his screener will weed you out and if you get through, Oakley will shout you down and just hang up on you.

    It seems to be the place of choice where all the wearers of the tinfoil hat congregate.

    What the hell Johnny? You used to be entertaining on 1010 , now it’s all antivax, truckers, anti Trudeau and pro- conservative .

    Real “nut job” radio.

    So sad. John Oakley used to have great current affairs and political commentary. Now it’s bland drivel to please the Woke masters. It’s only going to get worse if Trudeau’s country wrecking Liberals push suffocating Bill C-10 through. We need more push-back, not more pablum...
