Incredibly well deserved nod for this stellar team 👏🏻
Incredibly well deserved nod for this stellar team 👏🏻
I couldn't be more impressed with @powellbetsy's coverage of the Umar Zameer case. Working with her through this trial has been a career highlight. I encourage you to read her interview on Zameer's experience and feelings for Const. Northrup's family. thestar.com/news/gta/the-s…
For the @TorontoStar, I wrote about a beloved west-end dance class for adults with vision impairments — and what you can discover within yourself when you step into the unknown. thestar.com/entertainment/…
Across Toronto, every day, drivers break the law by blocking intersections—and police say it’s something they hardly ever enforce. My latest for @TorontoStar is a look at the crack down efforts in motion for one of the biggest traffic chaos factors: thestar.com/news/gta/drive…
On Wednesday’s @TorontoStar A1: @TondaMacC @aballinga @susandelacourt break down the federal budget, with more coverage inside (📸 Sean Kilpatrick). Plus: @lexharvs on drivers feeling the pain from new Gardiner lane closures.
ICYMI: Rather than just report what is said here, your Toronto Star city hall bureau try to explain what is actually happening - in front of and behind the scenes. We took a look at some of the main players and how their roles changed post-Tory in the Chow-era power dynamic

Evergreen tweet: my inbox is open for anyone who has gripes about Toronto traffic! [email protected]
EXCLUSIVE w/@BenSpurr: The workplace investigation into TTC CEO Rick Leary that has dragged on for more than five months includes allegations he violated employees’ human rights and tried to land jobs for his friends, among other claims @TorontoStar thestar.com/news/gta/docum…
Scoop from @lexharvs: Roughly 700 TTC electrical and trades workers are preparing to strike. thestar.com/news/gta/ttc-e…
A great overview of changing travel patterns and implications for transit by @lexharvs in the Star today: thestar.com/news/gta/weeke…
NEW: For years, Toronto's contracts with FIFA to host the World Cup have been a closely guarded secret at city hall. The Star obtained copies. Here's what in them: thestar.com/news/gta/tax-b…
My @TorontoStar column: February was a deadly month for pedestrians and cyclists in Toronto. The numbers make the case for an updated — and better funded — Vision Zero plan, with a real emphasis on driving safety in Scarborough, Etobicoke and North York thestar.com/opinion/contri…
Reupping this @TorontoStar call out:
TTC data shows violence has eased. So why do riders feel uneasy? thestar.com/news/gta/ttc-d… by @lexharvs via @TorontoStar
From me today: 'Were there warnings that the TTC didn't heed?' Consultant reports flag deficiencies in SRT maintenance ahead of derailment thestar.com/news/gta/alarm…

First of many!
Proud to have won the first National Newspaper Award in the Photo Story category. Thanks @NNA_CCJ, @MoiraWelsh, @TarasSlawnych, and @TorontoStar
Congratulations @SaraMojtehedz @rachelmendleson @TorontoStar
Very cool to see my 🦝🦝 story receive a nod in this category.
Closing out the category is a seoncd @TorontoStar nomination for Best Digital Editorial Package: Large Publication! Congratulations to the team behind "How Toronto lost its 100-year war with raccoons"! buff.ly/3W8ZZ0t
So nice to have this recognition alongside the stellar work in this category. Major thanks to @TraversFellows for the opportunity to travel, @EdTubb for hard work and care editing alongside @tocudmore, and to everyone who spoke to me for this story.
"After George Floyd" by @wendygillis is nominated in the Best Feature Article: Long category at #DPA24! Congratulations to Wendy and the @TorontoStar team! buff.ly/3W8ZZ0t
Heck yeah @dmrider @BenSpurr @alysanmati @thekeenanwire !!!!

Well, this is exciting: The Starwhal team is a finalist for the CJF Jackman Award! Congrats to the other finalists too, what a formidable list! newswire.ca/news-releases/…
I couldn't be more impressed with @powellbetsy's coverage of the Umar Zameer case. Working with her through this trial has been a career highlight. I encourage you to read her interview on Zameer's experience and feelings for Const. Northrup's family. thestar.com/news/gta/the-s…
It is so utterly embarrassing that @hockeynight during the playoffs doesn’t have a woman on their panel
For the @TorontoStar, I wrote about a beloved west-end dance class for adults with vision impairments — and what you can discover within yourself when you step into the unknown. thestar.com/entertainment/…
Stellar reporting by my colleague @powellbetsy throughout this trial. The role of good and fair journalism in society is crucial.
And that will do it. Blue bins were sold. Parking tickets were hiked. Bike lanes were added. Airbnb regulations were further regulated. The vacant home tax was fixed. (They hope!) There will be more beer in more parks. And an 11-storey building in the Annex. The end.
Hundreds of cyclists are out for Toronto’s third ghost bike memorial ride this year, for 59-year-old Vlad Zotov, who died last week after being struck by a driver: thestar.com/news/gta/cycli… Ride co-organized by @RespectTO and @MGridetoronto
In my previous life, I frequently worked with the radio room staff. Important work, respectable role, and really prepares you for breaking news reporting
The @TorontoStar is hiring post-secondary students for its paid Radio Room internship. Great opportunity to hone your breaking news skills, work in a fast-paced environment and get your foot in the door. DM any questions. (RR alum here.) jobs.smartrecruiters.com/Torstar/743999…
Scarborough and Mississauga are powerhouses when it comes to halal dining from practically every nation, so I picked 2 from each end (two old-school, two second-gen Canadiana, but all have good hangout vibes) x.com/njaved/status/…

My absolute favourite interview during today’s (partial) #EclipseSolar2024 in Toronto. Colin Bolton saw the event as an opportunity to have fun. The 43-year-old walked around Riverdale Park wearing a tin foil hat and waiving a sign that reads “Take me with you.”
