Concurrent with her talk show work, she had a recurring role in the TV series "Due South" as Inspector Margaret "Meg" Thatcher of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police from 1995 through 1999. She credited this role for helping her receive an award for community safety from her cellphone company. In 1996, she witnessed a mugging and called 911, giving a description of the mugger and his car that led to an arrest and recovery of the stolen goods. "Maybe my role as an RCMP officer on Due South gave me the practice I needed to help in a real situation," she said.
