Joyce Napier is a Canadian television journalist, who is a correspondent for the news division of Société Radio-Canada, the French language arm of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.〔("Joyce Napier en congé d'un an" ). ''La Presse'', May 8, 2014.〕 Born in Montreal, Quebec to parents from Egypt, she spent her childhood in Europe where her father worked for the Encyclopedia Britannica. She returned to Montreal to study journalism. She began her career as a print journalist, working as a Montreal correspondent for ''The Globe and Mail'' and Canadian Press before joining the Montreal newspaper ''La Presse'' as a reporter. She began working for CBMT as a television reporter in 1989.〔"Montrealer Downey to anchor CBMT-6 weekend newscasts". ''Montreal Gazette'', November 3, 1989.〕 Around the same time, she married Neil Macdonald, a reporter with the English division of CBC News. She first joined the CBC's French service in 1992 as part of a project within the CBC, in which she and Radio-Canada journalist Pierre Mignault exchanged jobs for a year in order to provide the CBC with staff input regarding the different organizational cultures of the two divisions.〔"Stopping at le snack-bar for a taste of mixed language". ''The Globe and Mail'', January 19, 1993.〕 During the 1995 Quebec referendum, Napier asked Bloc Québécois Member of Parliament Suzanne Tremblay to explain the Yes side's assertion that Quebec would be better able to support and protect francophone language rights in Canada as an independent country than as a Canadian province.〔"Non-Quebecois accent sounds ignorant to MP". ''Vancouver Sun'', October 18, 1995.〕 In response, Tremblay asserted that Napier's non-French surname, and the fact that she spoke French with a Continental rather than Québécois accent, meant that Napier lacked the requisite knowledge of Quebec history to understand that the answer was self-evident and did not need to be explained.〔 Tremblay subsequently apologized for the remark.〔"Leaders on both sides eating their words". ''Edmonton Journal'', October 18, 1995.〕 Napier was named Radio-Canada's Middle East correspondent in 1998, at the same time as Macdonald was assigned to the same role with the CBC's English division.〔"Reporter savours dream job in Israel". ''Ottawa Citizen'', July 14, 1998.〕 In 2003, Macdonald and Napier were both reassigned by their respective networks to the Washington, D.C. bureau.〔"Love those foreign correspondents". ''Montreal Gazette'', November 15, 2003.〕 In 2005, Napier conducted the first media interview granted by Karla Homolka after her release from prison.〔"'It's time for me to talk'". ''Victoria Times-Colonist'', July 5, 2005.〕 She announced that she was taking a one-year sabbatical from the network in May 2014.〔 She returned in August 2015 as a correspondent in the network's national parliamentary bureau in Ottawa.〔("Information à Radio-Canada : l'illusion parfaite" ).
