Lisa LaFlamme removed as CTV National news anchor: ‘I was blindsided’

Veteran news anchor Lisa LaFlamme says she was “blindsided” as Bell Media ended her contract at CTV National News after 35 years, a “business decision” it says will move the chief news anchor role in “a different direction.”

Omar Sachedina was named chief news anchor of CTV National News in a separate announcement on Monday.

More to come.
