CTV Kitchener has won a Radio Television Digital News Association (RTDNA) Canada Award for our coverage of the fire that destroyed the Old Marina restaurant on Lake Puslinch.
Our station won in the Breaking News category for small/medium markets in the Central Region.
CTV News crews were on the ground as flames tore through the local landmark on July 30.
Reporting live from the scene, CTV News reporters were able to provide updates as new details emerged from firefighters and get immediate reaction from the community that valued the restaurant as a popular gathering place.
Central Region Winners will now compete with the winners from the East, Prairies and West regions for Canada’s Best Local News Awards.
