Véro was a Canadian talk show hosted by Véronique Cloutier (previously a host of La Fureur), which aired on Radio-Canada.
The show originally aired Monday through Thursday live at 6:00 p.m. Eastern Time, and also aired live over much of the country from Manitoba eastward, though tape delayed at 5:00 p.m. in Mountain and Pacific time zones.
The placement at 6:00 p.m. displaced the hour-long regional Le Téléjournal newscasts in Quebec and Ontario, moving the program back a half-hour to 5:00 p.m. ET, dislodging the regional portion from 6:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Le Téléjournal followed Véro at 6:00 p.m. local time from Manitoba westward, and in the Maritimes, where it preceded Véro at 6:00 p.m. AT.
At the new timeslot, the newscast was watched by only 8% of the audience; in the previous year, the newscast averaged 10% of the audience.
After airing the final hour-long episode on December 8, Radio-Canada changed course and the news returned at 6:00 p.m. on December 12, now with the regional segment first. Then Vice-President of CBC/Radio-Canada, Robert Rabinovitch, called the original displacement of the news peut-être une erreur: perhaps a mistake. Véro would return after the winter hiatus, with a modified format: a half-hour every weekday at 5:00 p.m. starting January 9, 2006.
The show was later canceled and the last episode aired on May 5, 2006.
