  • CAJ/IRE Joint Workshop 2002



    The CAJ recently launched a new investigative techniques workshop with U.S.-based Investigative Reporters and Editors with great success. Crossing the 49th: Investigative Techniques From Both Sides of the Border took place October 5th in Vancouver.

    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.
