His father played professional hockey with the American Hockey League in the 1940s as well as being a businessman.
His mother was of Ukrainian background whose parents immigrated to Canada from Ukraine during World War I. She was a professional singer, including singing at the Château Frontenac during the big band era.
Nadon's father spoke French and English, but his mother spoke Ukrainian and English.
His first language was English, but his education was entirely in French-speaking educational institutions.
As a youth, it was his dream to become a professional hockey player and he played midget hockey in his hometown.
He later appeared with the Junior A Laval Saints.
However, his father forced him to choose whether he would continue to pursue a career in professional hockey or instead pursue a traditional career path.
Nadon chose his studies, though later claimed that he had turned down a draft offer from the Detroit Red Wings.
