(Toronto, Ontario) – Bloomberg TV Canada is pleased to announce that Amanda Lang has joined its\u00a0rapidly growing all-star team of talent as a producer and host of Bloomberg North. This half hour\u00a0show will dissect local and global business news with Canadian heavyweights. Bloomberg North will\u00a0debut in the first quarter of 2016 and will air weekdays at 6pm ET.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the core of Bloomberg TV Canada is quality locally produced business news that\u2019s important and\u00a0relevant to Canadians,\u201d said Mike Katrycz, Vice President News, Channel Zero. \u201cAmanda\u2019s strength as\u00a0one of this country\u2019s top business journalists will play a key role in delivering this. We\u2019re very happy\u00a0to have her on our team.\u201d<\/p>\n

For six years Lang was CBC\u2019s senior business correspondent, reporting for its flagship nightly news\u00a0program, The National, and host of The Exchange with Amanda Lang, a daily business program airing\u00a0on CBC News Network. Lang has interviewed many of the world\u2019s leading business and political\u00a0figures, covering in depth technology, the dot-com asset bubble, the credit crisis and great recession,\u00a0and the Euro-zone crisis. Her knowledge and experience bring unique context to the business stories\u00a0and the characters in the business world. Lang is also a published author, and lays claim to the bestselling\u00a0book \u201cThe Power of Why\u201d (HarperCollins, October 2012). When she is not on the desk of\u00a0Bloomberg North, she will continue working on her second book, which will be published in the fall of\u00a02016.<\/p>\n

Bloomberg TV Canada, the 24\/7 Canadian business and financial news television channel operated by\u00a0Channel Zero, will launch on November 16th, and will be available across the country via most\u00a0television providers. Recent hires include the appointment of Pamela Ritchie as Anchor of The Daily\u00a0Brief and Michael Bancroft as Executive Producer of the channel. Further talent announcements will\u00a0follow in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n
