Jonathan Pinto is the host of CBC Thunder Bay and CBC Sudburys afternoon radio show on CBC Radio One, Up North.

Born and raised in Peterborough, Ontario, Jonathan fell in love with CBC Radio at the age of 14 while listening to CBC Torontos Here and Now. He appreciated how the accents and stories reflected his own parents, who are from India.

Over the last ten years with CBC, Jonathan has maintained an unwavering commitment to truth, accuracy and accountability. He has designed extensive online candidate guides to keep voters informed during municipal elections, and even climbed aboard a fishing boat to report on Canadas largest freshwater fishery.

He started his career as a producer at CBC Toronto, and most recently was a reporter and guest host at CBC Windsor and CBC Londons Afternoon Drive. He also has a Masters in Urban Planning and a Bachelor of Arts in Canadian Studies.

When Jonathan isnt caring for his infant daughter, you can find him browsing local markets, sampling beloved eateries or cooking at home. Hes a self-professed food lover and is open to all must-try suggestions!
