The student government at @queensu, my alma mater, wants to have more control over what the student newspaper publishes. I'm very happy the @caj is calling it out for what it is. Full support to the @queensjournal in its fight for editorial autonomy.

We're calling on @Queens_AMS to immediately rescind a motion that could impinge on the future editorial freedom of @queensjournal. Student journalism is real journalism. Any efforts to interfere in journalistic activities is completely intolerable. šŸŽ¤ https://t.co/NcPKXGmvuY

Some personal news: it's my last day at @ctvottawa after seven awesome years. My time here as an assignment editor, producer and digital lead has been wonderful. I will miss working with the amazing people here, many of whom are dear friends. (1/2)
