The charitable-hearted journalist has touched many hearts and played a significant role in making the world a better place. Ken's track record and heartfelt gestures towards the less fortunate have not gone unnoticed. On January 25, 2010, Ken was declared to be a member of the Order of Ontario. Aside from the Order recognition, Ken was also honored by the Oshawa Community.
Shaw is very interested in playing golf, and he has enthusiastically participated in many tournaments. In an effort to exploit Ken's love for playing golf, Ken and his wife decided to help the needy in the process. The two have organized an annual golf tournament that raises money directed towards improving community welfare. His community service is truly brilliant, and he has received a lot of praise for all the service he has provided.
Even with all his generous acts, Ken's career and life encountered an obstacle: he was diagnosed with prostate cancer. Ken became aware of his condition not because it had developed and shown signs and symptoms, but from his regular blood tests. After his newfound awareness of his illness, Ken disappeared from the television screens for about two months to begin his efforts to fight the disease.
Ken took a brave step during his evening newscast to inform the public of his status. At that time, he was still working at CTV News Toronto. He told the people that he had undergone a successful surgery that restored normalcy in his body. A family friend had alerted him to the importance of getting tested. Since someone had taken the time to care about him, he wanted to pass on the positivity and urged other men to take the step and get tested. Unfortunately, Ken's family friend, who had been battling prostate cancer for some time, passed away after pushing him to get tested. Still, his friend's gesture was forever appreciated by Ken as he made his announcement on air.
Ken married Nancy, who became the anchor of the annual charity golf tournament. She was a perfect fit for him as they shared the same ideas about charity work. He and his wife Nancy have been collaborating on various charity projects. They even raised funds for the healthcare center in their country.
Ken had already been married before he met his current wife, Nancy. He was instantly smitten when he first saw her. Both of them had children from their previous relationships; Nancy had four children, while Ken had three. They put their past marriages behind them and worked towards creating a new family together. Their children got along well, much like the Brady Bunch.
