After 60 years in broadcasting and 35 years at CTV, Canada's most-trusted news anchor Lloyd Robertson signs off for the last time at the end of his final broadcast on Thursday, September 1, 2011 at 11 p.m. This original, one-hour documentary directed by Robertson's filmmaker daughter Lisa, offers a unique and personal glimpse into the life of one of Canada's most treasured icons, uncovering this Stratford, Ontario boy's humble beginnings and his rise to recognition as "Canada's most-trusted news anchor." Robertson's wife and four daughters, his closest high school pals, and friends such as CTV's Craig Oliver and former television journalist, the Hon. Pamela Wallin, share reflections and stories about Robertson in the documentary.
