Canadian Broadcast Hall of Fame
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Canadian Broadcast Hall of Fame, started in 1982, recognizes Canadians in broadcasting or entertainment related industries who have "achieved outstanding success in helping raise industry standards from a material or humanitarian standpoint."
Candidates are nominated annually by Canada's five broadcasting associations and the CAB's executive committee. The names of each inductee is inscribed in bronze on the Hall of Fame plaque at the CAB offices in Ottawa. Personalized plaques are also presented to either the inductees themselves or to their families.
