from todays Globe and Mail
Mr. Cuthbert was scheduled to anchor the CBC's world championship figure-skating coverage from Moscow in a few days, but he will be replaced by Mr. Lee. With Mr. Cuthbert gone, Mr. Lee, the No. 2 football voice, is likely to get the lead job.
Mr. Cuthbert learned of his termination from Mr. Kerr, his agent. Despite working for the CBC for more than 20 years, he didn't get a telephone call from the network.
Ms. Lee said she assumed that's the way he wanted it.

If this means Mark Lee becomes the 10pm ET play-by-play announcer, then God help us all.
