Paolo continued to expand his horizons when he joined the CFMT Television Network (now known as OMNI) in 1979. Over the years, he hosted and directed sports programs at CFMT, and eventually moved into an executive producer position.

(a weekly Italian newspaper in Montreal) in 1999; Founder and Member of the Executive Committee and Board of Directors of Italian Canadian Savings and Credit Union in 2000; and in that same year, President and CEO of Inner Peace Television Network [The first Canadian Religion (Catholic) Television (Digital Service)].

Today, he continues to work in CHIN?s news room, and he also hosts and produces ?Mandi Mandi,? a weekly magazine styled radio show and website devoted to the Friulan community of Canada. Throughout his impressive career Paolo has been involved with numerous charites and organizations such as: Caritas Telethon, Natale Della Bonta, Woodbridge Santa Claus Parade, and many more. He has published works such as, Almanacco Degli Italo-Canadesi,N Uocchio N Lacrema, Protagonisti Italiani del Mondo,and various other English and Italian pieces of writing.

Read More wanted to do as a teen: to work on radio. But my secret love is music: I wanted to become a musician, so I studied piano, sax and clarinet, but Liberace and Benny Goodman stole the show from me. Desperate, I left Italy and sailed to Canada. My first job was to interview Johnny Lombardi for a local Italian newspaper. I wrote so many good things about him and CHIN Radio that he offered me a job as supervisor. I accepted joyfully. It seems I was doing well, because, 3 days later, JBL appointed me manager of Italian Programs, and six months after that, Vice President of Italian Programs. Proudly following the advice of JBL, I organized the News Department and started the most provocative talk show in Canada. It was a sort of love/hate relationship; a practical, ideological revolution in which old and dangerous traditions from the dark ages were desecrated on air. CHIN Radio is a bridge between different cultures, traditions and ideals...and I am part of the CHIN team who built this bridge. Hide

Ever since I was a child, I have enjoyed listening to the radio and Italian radio announcers such as Linus, Albertino and Fargetta. I attended my first concert at the age of fifteen and I spent hours and hours waiting in line to hear singers such as Renato Zero, Claudio Baglioni and Antonello Venditti. I became even more passionate about music by going to clubs where unknown young DJs began their careers. One of these DJs was a certain Lorenzo Cherubini, better known as the now famous Jovanotti. I organized serenate, birthdays, and a variety of different parties and I remember spending countless evenings in clubs, restaurants and halls with a microphone in hand, entertaining people of all ages. I moved to Canada in 2004 and I soon started listening to CHIN Radio which has really made me feel like I am at home. By listening to CHIN, I also discovered that there are many Canadians who share my passions of music and soccer (of course!). I also work with Classy DJ as an Italian-speaking announcer and master of ceremonies for various functions such as weddings and feste. In 2006 I won the CHIN Top Ten @ 2 Host Search Contest and I began hosting the Sunday FM Program from 2-5 pm. I now also host the Drive Home Show on CHIN FM 100.7 every weekday afternoon from 3-7 pm. Having the privilege of being part of the CHIN family is truly like a dream come true for me. And so I ask you -- Please don’t wake me up!!! Ciao da Massimo. Hide
