“Carolyn Jarvis is an award-winning, veteran journalist who is deeply trusted by viewers across the country,” added Richard Gray, VP News, Bell Media, in a network announcement. “Carolyn’s years of experience telling Canadian stories make her a valuable addition to CTV News Channel, one that will bolster the network’s commitment to deliver up-to-the-minute news updates and context on the biggest stories.”

“News today has to be immediate, accurate and insightful,” added Jarvis. “I’m honoured to be joining CTV News Channel, where we will help inform and enlighten Canadians with stories that reflect their communities, delivered on any platform.”

Jarvis has served as Global News’ Chief Investigative Correspondent for the last nine years and been with Global since 2005, initially joining Global Edmonton as a weekend anchor and reporter.

Earlier in her career, Jarvis spent time as a weather presenter at The Weather Network and a reporter/anchor at RDTV in Red Deer.
