Andy Moir

Andy Moir, 75, on Dec. 21. Moir began his journalism career in his hometown of Winnipeg, before departing for Toronto, first working in radio on CBC’s long-running “Sunday Morning” radio program and then in television, where he helped found flagship current affairs program, “The Journal.” He joined CBC Halifax in 1990 as Senior Producer and later Executive Producer of television news and CBC Nova Scotia supper hour newscast, “First Edition.” Moir bought an 1870s home in Freeport, NS in 1978. It was his summer refuge for many years, until he and his wife Christine Callaghan, whom he met at CBC Nova Scotia, retired from the public broadcaster and moved to Freeport full-time in 1996. They went on to open a bed and breakfast, enjoying showing the Islands and Digby Neck to hundreds, if not thousands, of guests. In retirement, Moir started monthly volunteer-run newspaper “Passages” in the late 1990s, supervised District of Digby heritage effort “The Elder Project,” was a founder of the Freeport Community Development Association, and lobbied for local causes including improved health care resources and walking trails.
