Hayley King (she/her) - Co-host, co-producer
On December 13, 2006, in a tiny office at the Ottawa hospital, Hayley sat beside her mom, Judy, as the neurologist delivered the news ... Judy had ALS. From that moment, Hayley carried the image of her mom being buried alive, and it was terrifying. Over the years that followed Judy’s passing in 2008, the ALS community was never far from Hayley’s mind. In 2025, she had the opportunity to help in a meaningful way by participating in the Canadian ALS Learning Institute.
Hayley has been a veterinarian for over 30 years. She is passionate about delivering quality veterinary care and advocating for animal welfare. As a co-owner of a small animal hospital for over 20 years, Hayley learned a great deal about people, how to provide considerate feedback, and how to sometimes make difficult situations better. These skills have proven valuable in her role as an ALS Canada Community Ambassador.
