He retired in 2011, a few years after being inducted into the Canadian Association of Broadcasters Hall of Fame. Robertson continues to contribute to CTV with frequent appearances on “W5” and in the “Difference Makers” series, which along with the Rick Hansen Foundation, highlights deserving Canadians making a difference. Robertson is also an Officer of the Order of Canada and the recipient of two Gemini Awards.
