Emmanuelle Latraverse

Emmanuelle Latraverse (born 1974 or 1975)[1] was a Canadian journalist for Ici RDI. Covering the Parliament of Canada, she was the first female head of Radio Canada in Ottawa. She was the host of the television political program Les Coulisses du pouvoir ("The Corridors of Power") from September 2011 until the spring of 2017.[2] Subsequent to that, she was lead reporter on Le Téléjournal avec Céline Galipeau, the network's flagship newscast.[2]

During her career as a journalist, Latraverse appeared regularly on Le Téléjournal Québec from CBVT-DT Quebec City, hosted by Bruno Savard, and as a member of the "in-House panel" on The House from CBC Radio One.

On June 21, 2018, after a series of shuffles in her assignments on the network, Latraverse announced on Twitter that she had resigned from Ici RDI, effective the previous day "to discover new horizons. ... Journalism is one of the most beautiful professions in the world, but it must not become a golden cage".[2]
