Ed Stanford Russenholt (May 18, 1890 – February 3, 1991) was best known as CBWT's first weather person. Ed distinguished himself from other weathermen by saying "Ah, yes, the heart of the continent" in his weathercasts. He was replaced in that task in 1962 by news reader Maurice Burchell.
He wrote a book on the history of Assiniboia, The Heart of the Continent: being the history of Assiniboia - the truly typical Canadian community, and edited a book on Rockwood, Manitoba Re-echoes from Rockwood.
