Ben Mulroney is regarded as one of Canada’s premier television and radio hosts. He is best known as the former co-host of CTV’s Your Morning and Etalk and host of Canadian Idol, which was the most watched English-language Canadian television show on record for the entirety of its six-season run. As a preeminent host, emcee, and interviewer, Mulroney infuses galas, conferences, and every event he’s involved in with his signature humour, charisma, and warm personality. Despite being the son of former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney and earning a law degree from Laval University and a history degree from Duke University, Mulroney found his calling in show business, not politics. Mulroney got his start as the Quebec City Correspondent for talktv’s The Chatroom before joining CTV’s Canada AM as their entertainment reporter. He then joined Etalk from its inception, where he interviewed thousands of stars and reported from hundreds of red carpets, including the Oscars, the Golden Globes, the Emmys, and the Juno Awards. Mulroney has also appeared as a contributor on the weekend edition of ABC News’ Good Morning America and joined Kelly Ripa as guest co-host twice on the popular daytime talk show, Live! With Kelly. He also works closely with Aurora Strategy Global, a fast-growing public affairs, government, and public relations firm, and is a strategic and communications advisor to several Canadian startups, including Trexity, HOVR, Midori-Bio, and TutorOcean. As an experienced event host, Mulroney works closely with several charitable organizations, including Cystic Fibrosis Canada and SickKids.
