Global Calgary has announced changes to its local news lineup, starting Monday, Sept. 9, headlined by the addition of Dallas Flexhaug to Global News at 5 and Global News Hour at 6.
Joining Joel Senick and Paul Dunphy, Flexhaug moves to the evening newscasts from the local edition of Global News Morning, after almost a decade with the morning show and seven years as its anchor. She succeeds Linda Olsen, who retired from the station this month after almost three decades with Global Calgary.
“I am a born and raised Calgarian and I love this city,” said Flexhaug, in a Corus Entertainment announcement. “I’m grateful that I get to serve the community in this new way and after spending almost a decade as the anchor of Global News Morning, I feel ready to take on a new challenge and turn off the 3 a.m. alarm clock! Sleep will be my new best friend along with Joel Senick! See you on Global News at 5 and Global News Hour at 6 where I’ll focus on local news that connects the community, and hopefully share a few laughs along the way.”
