“Would you take a dream job working as a radio host if you knew you would be working with a co-host with accusations of prior abusive behaviour towards women and that you would also be exposed to two, sometimes three men vaping in an enclosed room for four hours a day with no ventilation? Would you complain about it?” she continues.
They also said they would be launching an external investigation into the alleged incidents and Derringer in the Morning would be put on hiatus pending the results of the investigation. “Like so many women, I have put up and shut up,” she said. “But there was one thing I just couldn’t put up with: a company that was willing to put my physical health in jeopardy.”

stephaniesmyth What about all this
She’s awful
Well, well, well…..
TDotGinger Unless if the stress is related to something of this nature
Bravo👏👏👏. Good on you for speaking your truth Jennifer. I applaud you for speaking up and showing these insecure men Enough is ENOUGH!!!
Good for you Jennifer for speaking up, it’s about time we stop this from happening.
I’ve never like JohnDerringer Pompous ass. Bravo Jennifer! I have had several situations just like yours and kept quiet. Stand up and be heard ladies! 👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Time to fill the void for “abused” women created by Amber Heard.
Derringer is a pompous POS
Why is Jennifer valentine back on ? Q107 didn’t like her there.
But he ain’t no Dean Blundell!!!
Ridiculous
Sad very sad people should respect each other this guy has had a long run and it will be over just sad all around
Shame on Corus and shame on the individuals involved.
Of course they take her side right away.
Bravo Jennifer! Never put up and shut up. That culture has to be stopped. HR needs to do their job here. They failed Jennifer big time.
if I remember Corus bought Q then dumped Howard Stern and hired Derringer - couldn't figure that one out and still can't
Wishing you all the best, Jennifer. Enough already.
BMO is a great example of being oblivious to the mistreatment of staff and breaching human rights requirements
How many years was this guy allowed to do this? That is the question. What else did they sweep under rug?
I remember he used to say on the air that all of his ex-girlfriends were crazy. That, to me, is a red flag.
Good!
Fired. ?
She looks like a Milf from Porn
When corporations value revenue. they turn a blind eye on bad behavior bc their golden boy feels he's above everyone else. If this happened prior to metoo. Derringer would've been immediately suspended. now Q107 has bad press, could lose sponsors & mkt share. All about $$$$$
Why oh why is this abuse tolerated and accepted by workplaces till individuals go public?
HumHow he could be Phil’s replacement 😂
Bullcrap!!!! She should have done this years ago if it was a problem...Derringer wil be missed.
Ego Derringer has finally met a brave opponent!
So ctv put up with this behaviour because? This is the company that loves to come in and fire hosts and escort them to the door without warning. Although I will say in most cases it’s women not men.
And he promotes the 'Abuse Hurts' charity!
Sounds like she wasn't a good fit for the spot
Incase you think I'm full of crap I was almost homeless from this and set me back alot. dosomething
I belive her.
What is this saying? It’s not clear. I got the compliant files lol
I knew before I read the story it had to be Derringer…I have no idea how he’s lasted this long…he’s horrible at what he does.
So sorry. Glad you made a brave choice!
If they were vaping in the workplace then some station managment needs to be shown the door because that is their responsibility (but don't expect that)
this also points out that HR does nothing for employees
q107, JohnDerringer kidparker Flairboy I am so disappointed in your behaviour! I thought you guys were better than this, but apparently not! Shame on all of you
I was threatened to be murdered and chopped up at my last company. My boss forced me to write a statement saying she was taking care of it. But than fired ME because I was uncomfortable working there after. I have statements for Police and toronto Police DID NOTHING!still waiting
I stopped listening to Q107 years ago when, onl occasions,he voiced his disgust over fat, over weight women. It shocked me. He has 3 daughters. I turned their station off for good. If we thought Saturday's storm was wild...hang on cuz Hurricane Jennifer is on us. TeamJennifer
Good for her!
She is not launching a lawsuit...that's doing it for the principals and change .Those who sue for millions and say it's in the name of change are full of it. Good luck Jennifer .
Breakfast I wonder if he is still getting a paycheque
Tool of the day!
Can we call this what it is/should be? Suspension pending investigation not “hiatus” 🙄 this isn’t some holiday from work.
You have the right to refuse unsafe work and there are laws she could use, but chose not to.
And it should be without pay! He deserves to suffer somehow now!
This is a first but it's not a first at the Commission. Come read our story about sexual assaults at TTC and caused by lawyers at TTC Legal Department, Superintendents in Transit Control and Procurement.
Anything to make a quick buck
What is it with these radio personalities
Well CP, Working at the press is a job employment yes? ' everyone has a right to not be harassed or verbally or physically assaulted look who every started this problem must get addressed and warned or perhaps fired depending what is on her or his file all ready
Oh great another poor me movement
JohnDerringer “father of 3 girls” eh? Yet still abusive towards women. I feel sorry for those poor girls, with no decent role model to emulate.
Work retail for 20 years and then tell me how you feel ….
jeez you have one case a few years ago of a TV/Radio Personality allegedly leaving threatening phone calls on his ex's answering machine and now this its almost as if male boomers in the media are predisposed to this behavior, maybe its time to just fire everybody and move on
Took CP24 this long to post a news story...shame on them like the rest of the MSM not doing their jobs :(
Amazing morning show for decades and she ruined it after being on there for a very short time.
Wouldn’t be surprise to see a few more ladies come forward with similar complaints
I am glad that Cp24 is giving this article attention no woman should be made to feel inferior to anyone! Shame on Q107Toronto for letting it happen!! JennValentyne you go, girl!! don't ever be someone's punching bag!! Q107 you suck! my family and friends have boycotted Q107.
He’s still on the air?
Kinda hoping it was her. She's the worst
so getting bullied is a human rights violation
Why does this not surprise me.
I was under the impression that cp24 was a progressive institution but I guess not... it makes you wonder
Obviously she had to go to the human rights commission because they weren’t doing their job
love the file photo of JD...of all the pics of the guy out there, they chose this one
Karen
Didn’t she get fired from CP24 or was that city?
More of a Humble & Fred guy myself.
Took you guys a while to post this.
Can’t military talk to a lady obviously
