CBC News Anchor Travis Dhanraj Says He Was ‘Forced’ to Resign From Broadcaster

CANADA, JUL 7 – Travis Dhanraj claims CBC pressured him to resign amid allegations of retaliation and exclusion, with plans to file complaints to the Canadian Human Rights Commission.

  • Travis Dhanraj, longtime CBC News anchor and host of Canada Tonight, announced his forced resignation on July 7, 2025, in Toronto.
  • His departure followed months of alleged sidelining, retaliation, and exclusion after raising systemic issues and editorial imbalance starting January 2024.
  • Last fall, Dhanraj took a leave of absence from his role on CBC News Network’s prime-time show and subsequently went on medical leave in July 2024 amid disputes concerning the program’s content and guest representation.
  • CBC spokeswoman Kerry Kelly firmly denies the allegations, citing privacy restrictions, while Dhanraj’s attorney Kathryn Marshall intends to pursue the matter with the Canadian Human Rights Commission.
  • This episode underscores ongoing concerns about CBC's workplace culture and editorial independence, with Dhanraj pledging to reveal more when the time is right.
