No indication of notability per WP:BIO. There's very little coverage of the reality show show in which she appeared in WP:RS online (though according to IMDB it ran for four years), and even less coverage of this presenter: all I can find are passing mentions on the CTV website, and in a few TV blogs.

 * Delete. This is an obvious holdover from the days when people used to think that all you had to do to get a television personality into Wikipedia was take her own "staff" profile on the website of her own employer, adjust the wording just enough to avoid being an outright WP:COPYVIO, source it to itself, and abracadabra. But that's not how it worked then, and it's not how it works now — notability is not contingent on what the article says, but on how well it does or doesn't reliably source what it says to media coverage independent of her own employer. But there are exactly zero independent and unaffiliated sources here, and even on a ProQuest search there's no particularly strong reliable source coverage about her to salvage it with. Note that I'm also bundling her cohost here, as his article suffers from the exact same problem. Bearcat (talk) 23:54, 8 May 2018 (UTC)
