A legend at CBC Television has died from natural causes.

Patrick Watson, a veteran Canadian actor, producer, TV host and one-time chairman of pubcaster CBC/Radio-Canada, has died. He was 92.

Watson died on Monday of natural causes; no further details were available. “From his start as a teen actor on CBC Radio’s The Kootenay Kid, to his storied career with CBC News and his time as chair of the CBC/Radio-Canada board of directors, Patrick Watson’s contribution to Canada’s public broadcaster and his service to Canadians across a number of fields was far-reaching, made a difference and will not soon be forgotten,” the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. and Radio Canada said in a statement on Tuesday obtained by The Hollywood Reporter.
