Pierre Nadeau (19 December 1936 – 3 September 2019) was a Canadian journalist, television presenter and producer. He began in journalism as a radio reporter in 1956, inspired by his father's work with Radio-Canada. He interned at the Office de Radiodiffusion Télévision Française where he was mentored by Léon Zitrone and Judith Jasmin, and later served as the Radio-Canada correspondent in Paris. He emulated the free exchange of information on RTL radio in France, which inspired his subsequent presentation style. He worked more than 30 years for Radio-Canada in Montreal as a reporter and host for news programs on current affairs, world events, and politics, and had two tenures as host of the news magazine Le Point. Nadeau founded his own production company in 1979, produced television series for Radio-Canada and TVA, and his daughter Pascale Nadeau followed in his footsteps as a television host and journalist in Quebec. He won six Gemini Awards for his television work, and his career was recognized with the Olivar-Asselin Award, the Artis Award, and the Grand Prix Gémeaux. He was made a knight of the National Order of Quebec in 1992, retired from journalism in 2008 due to Parkinson's disease, and was named an Officer of the Order of Canada in 2009.
