At the end of the national morning program today, Montreal-based host Bernard 
St. Laurent (of C'est la Vie) said only some stations would broadcast a national 
morning show program tomorrow. If you want a taste of these short-lived 
replacement programs, you can try to catch them on 6160 kHz from CKZN St. John's 
or CKZU Vancouver. (And there's the Internet, of course.)
The restoration of the national newsroom probably means RCI's Internet and 
satellite services are returning to normal with CBC news on the hour.
As I was typing this, CBC Calgary ran a local weather forecast after the news at 
1800 UTC, the first bit of local programming for nearly two months. The 
announcer began by saying the local lunchtime and afternoon programs would 
return tomorrow, while the local morning show would return Thursday.
I note, though, that nothing is being done to restore Radio Two right now.
