Morningside was a nationally broadcast Canadian radio program that aired on CBC Radio from September 20, 1976, to May 30, 1997. The show was heard from 9 a.m. to noon, Monday to Friday, and replaced a series of short-lived morning radio programs that aired in this slot after This Country in the Morning ended in 1974.

The series was created by Krista Mäeots, who served as its executive producer until her death in 1978. The show debuted with Harry Brown and Maxine Crook as co-hosts. In September 1977, Don Harron became the host until 1982. Harron was a well-known Canadian comedian, actor, director, journalist, author, playwright, and composer, best remembered by American audiences for his role on the long-running country music series Hee Haw.
