A local TV news anchor has been named the best in country as the Canadian Screen Awards began handing out awards for 2022.
On Monday, the Canadian Screen Awards kicked off for 2022 with winners named in the Broadcast News category.
And we have a couple of winners right here in Vancouver.
Anita Bathe, the anchor of CBC Vancouver’s flagship supper hour program at 6 pm, has won the award for “Best News Anchor, Local.”
Never imagined I’d be winning Best Local Anchor at the #CanadianScreenAwards while at home in COVID isolation but this is definitely the booster I needed!!
Congrats to my colleague @BellePuri for taking home Best Local Reporter – well deserved. https://t.co/o7eNMva8kO pic.twitter.com/R8vtYQo3k4— Anita Bathe (@anitabathe) April 5, 2022
