About Mark

Mark has been delivering news to Albertans (and some Saskatchewanians) for the last 15 years. He started in radio in Canada's only inter-provincial city of Lloydminster in 2000, living on the Alberta side of course. Then it was off to Edmonton in 2003 for a three-year stint in the Alberta capital before venturing south to Calgary in 2006, just a month after 660 NEWS launched. Mark has been on the air every weekday from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. ever since, delivering the latest news that matters to Calgarians.
