“It has always been a dream of mine to do talk radio at CKNW, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to be joining such a talented and passionate news and current affairs team,” Steele said. “I can hardly wait to get on the air and start a conversation with the people of Metro Vancouver.”

“We are thrilled to have such a distinguished, experienced and accomplished storyteller join the CKNW team,” said Ian Koenigsfest, Senior Brand Director of CKNW. “Lynda’s ability to cut to the chase will give CKNW’s audiences an intelligent, entertaining and informative perspective in the afternoon.”
