I can think of no one else better to cover this most historical event. Brava to CityNews for knowing how dear and trusted Lisa is to us.

[@John-nc4bl]

Old Mrs Windsor the so-called queen of England represented an old institution with a very bad history. Now her son Chooles will be representing the old cultish institution. May it, once and for all, be dumped in the cess pit of its' own creation.

[@HeidiSchwendeWSI]

CTV's loss is CityNews' gain. Kudos for recognizing the unbelievable contribution this woman has made to reporting world events to our Nation and for being such an ambassador of Canadian journalistic excellence! Three resounding cheers.

Barf… just virtue signalling, no thanks

[@mg79277]

@@Ont785 Définition of virtue signaling : vir·tue sig·nal·ing noun: virtue signalling the action or practice of publicly expressing opinions or sentiments intended to demonstrate one's good character or the moral correctness of one's position on a particular issue. "it's noticeable how often virtue signaling consists of saying you hate things" I guess that means you But whatever

[@Ont785]

@@mg79277 Cute definition. Virtue signalling is a completely bias morality projection of yourself. It’s not based on any facts, but a personal ideology that YOU believe.

Thank goodness! I have missed Lisa's dignity and grace and especially at this time of mourning need her gentle, sincere and honest touch. Well done City. I am a convert.

[@BrowneyedGirlmjd]

I cannot put into words how happy this news made me. I had been watching CNN simply because I didn’t think I would be able to watch broadcast with Lisa LaFlemme as the lead. Thank you City and thank you Rogers. I wanted the Canadian perspective but didn’t want to watch CBC now I don’t have to.

[@claudettemiller2346]

I am absolutely delighted to learn of Lisa’s appointment. No one can cover this momentous occasion like Lisa can. Way to go, Lisa💃🎊🎉🥳💯👍🏾

Thank you for hiring Lisa, she will make you proud as she has made Canadians especially women proud. God Bless you for your decision to hire Lisa. For tge other station I wi pray for them. Blessings

[@yvonnesmith2335]

I was thinking yesterday, how disappointing it is that Lisa was forced into not covering the Queens death and funeral. I am happy for her that City News gave her this opportunity. I definitely will be watching Lisa’s coverage of Queen Elizabeth 2nd.

[@janshe3597]

That was what I was thinking too. Now, I’m very glad I will be able to see Lisa cover this story. Congratulations Lisa! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

CTV doesn't even have the collective corporate brain power to understand how significant this is for City. Another reason to watch City.

[@robwealer5416]

She's great ... have watched her for years. I hope City is paying her what's she's worth. Lots have followed this path from the networks to local stations for cut rate jobs where they are also required to do radio (and sweep the floors for all we know.) Lisa should be upfront if they cited her quickly droppings ratings at CTV in contract negotiations and stiffed her on salary. Otherwise this is all pointless.

[@edymoss3466]

Bravo city news for hiring Lisa You won’t be disappointed she is has been very respected by Canadians Bravo Lisa best of luck I you new venture. I’ll bet CTV news is kicking themselves now
