Lloyd Robertson
Lloyd Robertson, born in Stratford, Ontario in 1934, is the anchor of Canada's nightly CTV News. Before he joined CTV in 1976, Robertson anchored rival CBC's The National, and before that, in the late 1960's, he hosted a show called "CBC Weekend". From 1976 to 1984, Robertson co-anchored the CTV News with the late Harvey Kirck. When Kirck left CTV in 1984, Robertson became the senior news anchor for CTV. Robertson has covered many major events throughout his career, including several Olympic Games, Terry Fox, the repatriation of the Canadian Constitution, both the 1980 and 1995 Quebec referendums on separation from Canada, many federal elections, the death of Princess Diana, and the terrorist attacks of 9/11.
Joe Flaherty parodied him as the newscaster Floyd Robertson on the comedy program SCTV.
