From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia Vicki Gabereau is a Canadian radio and television personality. She currently hosts a self-titled afternoon talk show on CTV Television Network, which recently wrapped up production.
Born Vicki Filion in Vancouver, British Columbia, Gabereau moved to Toronto at age 18 for university. In Toronto, she married Michel Gabereau and worked a variety of jobs, including as a professional clown. In that capacity, she ran for Mayor of Toronto in 1974 under the pseudonym Rosie Sunrise.
She then worked in radio, hosting her first talk show for a station in Brampton, Ontario. She later joined the CBC as an archivist, and became host of that network's Variety Tonight in 1981.
In 1985, she became host of Gabereau, a two-hour daily interview show on CBC Radio. She stayed with the CBC until 1997, when she moved to CTV. Her radio program was replaced by The Roundup (Originally Richardson's Roundup), hosted by Bill Richardson.
Gabereau has also published an autobiography, This Won't Hurt a Bit, and a cookbook collecting some of her favourite recipes sent in by her CBC radio listeners.
