CBC severing ties with two top executives in wake of Jian Ghomeshi scandal

CBC says it is “severing ties” with two top executives in the wake of the Jian Ghomeshi scandal.

CBC tweeted that Chris Boyce, executive director of CBC Radio, and Todd Spencer, the head of human resources and industrial relations for English services, are leaving the public broadcaster.

The news comes as a report into how CBC handled the Ghomeshi scandal is set to be released.

The CBC fired the host of its daily radio arts and culture show “Q” in October after seeing what it called “graphic evidence” that he had caused physical injury to a woman.

Boyce and Spencer conducted interviews with “Q” employees last summer as part of an internal investigation.

The two were put on indefinite leave in January.
