Thursday is Carmen Leibel's final day at CTV News Edmonton.
After 16 years at the station, Carmen has decided to spend more time with her family and grow her new business.
“I am leaving with such gratitude for my career here," Carmen said.
Carmen first joined CFRN in 2003 as a part-time writer after stints at CTV Yorkton and CTV Prince Albert. Carmen took on several different roles in the newsroom before landing her dream gig 12 years ago.
“It was always my goal to be the health reporter," Carmen added
Carmen made that dream a reality and told health-related stories for a number of years. In that role, some of her favourite stories were about a set of quad babies from Hythe, an inspiring triathlete battling an aggressive form of cancer, and a young girl's wish to meet Taylor Swift.
She also enjoyed producing her Healthier You series which followed two couples for 12 weeks on a health and wellness journey.
Admitted serial killer Jeremy Skibicki’s defence lawyers have argued the accused had a history of schizophrenic delusions culminating in ‘catastrophic circumstances,’ while Crown prosecutors say the killings of four vulnerable Indigenous women were driven by Skibicki’s racist views and deviant sexual urges.
