Famed Canadian sexual health advice TV and radio host Sue Johanson has died at age 93.

CBC is reporting it confirmed with her family that Johanson has passed away.

A nurse by trade, Johanson was known throughout Canada and the United States for her frank discussions about all manner of sexual health topics.

Starting her career in 1970 at a Toronto birth control clinic, she began travelling around Ontario providing sex education discussions in schools, until around 1980 when she was offered a call-in radio show.

Things took off from there and Johanson enjoyed a decades-long career, earning countless accolades and legions of fans.
