Passionate
Investigative Journalist
Born, 1948, Lachine, Quebec, Victor Gregory Malarek has been a Canadian journalist since 1970. Of Ukrainian descent, Victor, co-host of CBC’s Fifth Estate since 1990, and a senior reporter on social policy issues with The Globe & Mail since 1976, is a passionate journalist whose strong concerns about social issues have led him to two Michener Awards, 1985 and 1988, and a Gemini Award, 1997, as best Canadian broadcast journalist. Author of several fascinating investigative books, Victor, who now lives in Toronto, in this view, speaks on the 1996 Tenth Anniversary of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster in his ancestral homeland, Ukraine.
