John Derringer information


John Derringer (born John Hayes on September 21, 1962) is a former Canadian radio personality. Though he worked in several markets in the 1980s and 90s, he's best known for his long association with CILQ-FM (Q107) in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, initially from 1984 to 1993, and again from 2000 until 2022.[1]

Derringer lives in nearby Aurora. He hosted a weekday morning show, Derringer In The Morning, until it was suspended in May 2022. Throughout the early 2000s, Derringer's opinions also appeared in the form of a regular column in the Toronto Sun. As of 2016, Derringer has been named "Radio Personality of the Year" by Canadian Music Week 10 times, and has been named "Favourite Toronto Radio Personality" by the Sun, Eye Weekly, Now Magazine and Top Choice Awards.[2]

In March 2012, Derringer received the Allan Waters Lifetime Achievement Award and was inducted into the Canadian Broadcast Industry Hall of Fame at Canadian Music Week in Toronto.[3]

In 2012, he received the Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Medal for his work with the Canadian Centre for Abuse Awareness.[4]

In May 2022, Derringer was suspended from Q107 pending an investigation after several former employees of the station, including Jennifer Valentyne, had accused him of misconduct and gender discrimination.[5] He and the station agreed to "part ways" permanently in August 2022.[6]
