Known for her incisive reporting and compelling storytelling, Cameron's work transcended traditional journalism, often delving into the complexities of Canadian society. Her career spanned several decades during which she tackled significant issues such as corruption, crime, and social injustice. Through her investigative prowess, she not only informed the public but also held powerful entities accountable.
Cameron's most notable works include her exhaustive investigations into high-profile cases such as the Air India bombing and the infamous Robert Pickton murder trial. Her book "On The Farm: Robert William Pickton and The Tragic Story of Vancouver's Missing Women" stands as a critical examination of systemic failures in law enforcement that allowed these tragedies to occur. This work not only garnered national attention but also contributed to ongoing discussions regarding women's rights and safety in Canada. Cameron’s ability to weave factual reporting with human narratives has left an indelible mark on both journalism and literature.

In addition to Amy, Cameron is survived by her husband, David, and daughter Tassie.
Her family said a funeral will be held on Sept. 8 at St. Andrew's Church in downtown Toronto, where Cameron was involved in establishing an Out of the Cold program in 1991.
