Quebec TV Exec to Replace Catherine Tait as Head of CBC

Marie-Philippe Bouchard, a seasoned executive from a Quebec news channel, has been tapped to lead Canada’s national public broadcaster.

Bouchard’s appointment as the next President and CEO of CBC/Radio-Canada was announced on Oct. 22. She will begin her five-year term on Jan. 3, 2025.

Bouchard has been President and CEO of TV5 Québec Canada since February 2016, overseeing the TV5 Unis channels and other digital platforms for Francophone audiences in Canada. Before joining TV5 Québec Canada, she held senior executive positions at CBC/Radio-Canada, managing various departments including legal, strategic, and digital services.

Just think, she may not finish her 5 year term if a certain promise is kept.
