Lynda Steele
Lifelong news junkie and award-winning broadcaster Lynda Steel is the host of The Lynda Steel Show on Canada’s Global News and at CKNW Radio Vancouver. She is also famous as the anchor and co-producer of the Early News on Global Edmonton, the most watched newscast in Northern Alberta and Edmonton, Canada.
Widely regarded as one of Canada’s most trusted, talent and respected broadcast journalists, her work has earned her the Canadian Professional Television Association (CANPRO)’s Gold Award for Canada’s best feature reporting. She was previously host of Steele on Your Side, a consumer segment on CTV Vancouver, and has also written a lifestyle column for the Edmonton Journal which was made into the book Laptop Diaries with all proceeds going to Alberta’s women shelters.
Born in Edmonton, Canada, Steel grew up in Hinton and began her career at CKVU-TV in Vancouver. She then moved CBC Edmonton, CITV-TV Edmonton, and Global Edmonton where she spent 17 years as the 6pm anchor before heading back to the West Coast of Canada in 2011.

TV PERSONALITY: Lynda Steele is gonna make it after all!
Posted on October 11, 2013By Mike RossEntertainment, Front Slider, News, TV and Radio, tv and radio
It sure didn’t take long for Lynda Steele to become a media rock star in Vancouver.
Barely two and a half years since she left a 16 year stint anchoring the evening news on Global Edmonton, she’s been given her own show on CTV Vancouver: Steele On Your Side. The half-hour consumer program premieres Oct. 20.
Steele seems not to have had much trouble adjusting to life in Lotusland, like so many Edmontonians in the brain drain before her. It helps that her husband, former deputy chief of the Edmonton Police Service Norm Lapinski, landed an assistant commissioner job with the RCMP. The main reason for the easy transition, Steele says, is that few people who live in Vancouver are actually from Vancouver. She’s run into a number of fellow ex-Edmontonians at the CTV newsroom alone, including Keri Adams, who used to anchor Global’s weekend news in Edmonton.
Other expats around Vancouver are just glad to see a familiar face.
