Burns will also host the iHeartRadio Top 20 every Sunday at 10 a.m. on the network, while Myles Galloway moves into her former 7 – 11 p.m. iHeartRadio Nights time slot.

The new Virgin Radio Weekender will air Sundays from 6 -10 p.m., hosted by Virgin Toronto personality and music director Dames Nellas, Virgin Radio Vancouver afternoon drive host Amy Spencer, and Virgin Radio Calgary midday host Juliette Nunes.

Most Requested Live with Romeo is airing 7 p.m. – midnight, Saturday nights across the iHeartRadio network in both Canada and the U.S.

A spokesperson for Bell Media said while the changes have prompted some lineup shifts in the Ontario and Atlantic markets, they did not result in any staff departures.
