Tony Grace

CTV News Kitchener Anchor

Contact

Tony Grace anchors CTV News at 6 and CTV News at 11:30 on CTV Kitchener.

He first joined CTV in 2001, and has become a familiar and trusted presence to audiences across Canada.

From his work in our local newsrooms, on Parliament Hill, at CTV National News and CTV News Channel, there’s hardly a story Tony hasn’t brought home to Canadians over the last quarter century.

He’s interviewed Prime Ministers and other notable newsmakers, traveled to the scenes of breaking stories on both sides of the Canada-U.S. border, delivered live hurricane and election coverage, and anchored award-winning local newscasts. He’s thrilled to be back in Waterloo Region, and considers local news a critical public service.

Tony is also a mentor, chairing the Journalism & Communications Advisory Committee at his alma mater Loyalist College, where he graduated with honors.

Gearing down away from the office, Tony is a fitness enthusiast, a proud cat dad, a music buff with an ever-growing vinyl collection, and a lover of all things nostalgic: whether it be classic game shows, old movies, or just the art of conversation among friends with good food and wine.

About Us

Heads We Stay

In 1907 a young man from Berlin, Ontario tossed a coin to decide what direction his future would take. "If it's heads," he said to his young wife, "we stay and make phonographs."

It was quite a turning point. Instead of heading west to seek his fortune, Arthur Bell (A.B.) Pollock stayed and made phonographs, and then made a whole lot more. From one arbitrary coin toss came successful ventures in the commercial manufacture of phonographs, radio and television sets, as well as home furniture and appliances.

It was the start of the Electrohome Corporation, a world leader in the manufacture of electronic components and equipment.

It was also the beginning of a very successful television station.

Carl Pollock, A.B.'s son, along with a local business group, had the desire and foresight to apply for a television broadcast license in 1953.

On March 1, 1954, Central Ontario Television went to air in Kitchener, Ontario. And it hasn't looked back. In fact, we've become one of the most successful broadcasters of regional news, community events and sports in the country.
