The event featured some of the top
investigative reporters from the U.S. and Canada. It drew more than 60
delegates from both countries who heard a range of fascinating stories,
tips and techniques on everything from covering terrorism to trade to
health. Delegates left raving about the ideas they picked up and the
techniques they've taken back to their newsrooms.
It's an idea we hope to make an annual event. Special thanks goes to the
following people who helped make this event a success: Robert Cribb,
Toronto Star; Ian McDougall, Toronto Sun; Erica Johnson, CBC; Trudi
Beutel, Richmond News; Boni Fox-Gray, Firefox Communications; John
Dickins, CAJ.
Brant Houston, Executive Director IRE; Robert Cribb, CAJ President; John
Dickins, Executive Director CAJ.
