Valerie Pringle

Valerie Pringle is a Canadian television host and journalist.

Pringle began her career in broadcasting as a summer student with Toronto radio station CFRB in 1973, and became a fulltime reporter for the station the following year. In 1981, she hosted her own daily series on CFRB, the "Pringle Program".

In 1984, Pringle moved to the CBC as one of the original cohosts of Midday. She stayed with Midday until 1993, when she moved to CTV to cohost Canada AM. (This was widely viewed as a revenge move for the CBC's hiring of Pamela Wallin the previous year.)

With CTV, Pringle was also a host of special events programming such as the network's 1993 election and 1995 Quebec referendum coverage and the 1994 Olympics in Lillehammer, Norway.

Pringle remained with Canada AM until 2001, when she retired from daily television. She has continued to host documentary specials for CTV and Discovery Channel Canada, and also hosts the Canadian edition of Antiques Roadshow on CBC.
