Paul Arcand

Paul Arcand, born on May twelfth, nineteen sixty, in Saint-Hyacinthe, Quebec, is a distinguished Canadian journalist, radio personality, and film producer. He began his career in journalism at CKBS in St. Hyacinthe in nineteen seventy-eight, quickly making a name for himself in the industry. By nineteen eighty, he had transitioned to Montreal's CKVL, and the following year, he joined CJMS, where he would rise to the position of news director by nineteen eighty-five.

In nineteen eighty-eight, Arcand took on the role of PM drive show host, and by nineteen ninety, he had established himself as the morning man. Following the closure of CJMS in nineteen ninety-four due to a merger, he moved to CKAC, where he continued to build his reputation as a trusted voice in morning talk radio.

In two thousand, Arcand expanded his reach by joining the TVA television network, hosting a popular half-hour interview show titled 'Arcand' until April two thousand five. His insightful interviewing style earned him a loyal audience, and he was known for asking the tough questions while maintaining a centrist political stance.

After announcing his departure from CKAC in October two thousand three, he joined CKOO-FM, now known as CHMP-FM, where he continued to engage listeners until his retirement in two thousand twenty-four. In addition to his radio and television work, Arcand produced the documentary 'Thieves of Innocence' in two thousand five, which addressed the critical issue of child abuse in Quebec.
