Pat Foran began work as a reporter in 1985 at Kitchener's CKCO and later joined ATV (Atlantic Television) in New Brunswick. In 1990 he was hired by CFTO in Toronto where, as a front line reporter, he filed the top stories of the day and also reported on national issues for CTV National News. He has interviewed the famous and infamous, including the likes of Wayne Gretzky, Sarah, the Duchess of York, prime ministers and premiers.

In 1998, Pat's career took a new direction when he was asked to create a unique segment to deal with consumer issues. Since then, Pat's Consumer Alert has become a popular component of CFTO News. His stories air on the station's number one rated newscasts in Ontario and are also shown across the country on CTV's 24-hour network, Newsnet. Pat also brings his consumer expertise to a national audience as a regular guest on CTV's popular morning show Canada AM.

Recognized as one of Canada's leading consumer advocates, Pat is regularly asked to speak publicly on consumer and safety issues. He receives countless emails and faxes from loyal viewers thanking him for the information he provides.
