Nancy Wilson, a prominent Canadian journalist and television personality, was born and raised in Ottawa, Ontario. She earned her degree from Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, where she initially developed a passion for politics while attending lectures by noted scholars such as George Perlin, David Smith, and Tom Axworthy. Her academic environment greatly influenced her decision to pursue a career in journalism.
During her final year at Queen’s University, Wilson took a non-credit dance course that led her to join a semi-professional dance troupe based in Vancouver. After nine months of pursuing dance, she decided it wasn't the career path for her and began considering opportunities in media. She described this transition as a gradual realization rather than a sudden epiphany. Motivated and eager, Wilson started visiting local newsrooms to explore entry-level opportunities in journalism.
Wilson’s broadcasting career began in Terrace, British Columbia, marking the start of what would become a three-decade-long journey in journalism. She took on various roles, including reporter, host, and anchor. Among her early career highlights were positions at CTV’s Canada AM, CJOH News in Ottawa, and Global News’s Parliamentary Bureau on Parliament Hill.
In 1989, producer Mark Starowicz recruited Wilson to join the CBC’s documentary unit, contributing segments to the network’s acclaimed news magazine, The Journal. Her work included in-depth reports on Canada's health care system and the origins of the Mohawk Warrior Society. She also covered major Canadian stories, such as the Meech Lake Accord debate, the rise of the Bloc Québécois, and the 1989 Quebec provincial election.
