Where do you get your local Canadian news? Is there an independent news source you trust?
I'm looking for #recommendations of anything hyper-local that isn't owned by Rogers/Post-Media/Bell. It can be from any province/territory. #Canada #canadiannews

This was a really helpful breakdown of what kind of content you can provide as a freelance photographer to get more work. Could be applied to other freelancers too.

Ice sculpture of a whale seemingly rising out of the ocean.
The ice sculptures at the Snowcastle in Yellowknife NWT are incredible. Even the ground around it is carved.
Teams from across Canada and even Spain, Estonia, etc did such an amazing job!
This will be a loss to the community.
Opportunities like this in general assume that you have the ability to act and react quickly and then speed off, but so many people work more slowly to get to a point where they're ready. Longer term support and encouragement is needed.
What a fascinating read. As I get closer to 50 I'm starting to see the hallmarks of aging and frequently question if I'm doing it right.
From the article: "It is absurd to say that I feel I am not yet grown up. I am not laying claim to perpetual youth (though 89 is something of a surprise)..."
What an incredible two days of the #theiij 2026 Freelance journalism conference. Unlike last year when I was still finishing up school, I feel much more prepared to put these tips into action. Still overwhelming, but I'm in awe of the generosity of the speakers and attendees.
Write from a place of curiosity and authenticity. You can be like Alice in Wonderland.

Interesting tip from Lale Arikoglu editor of @cntraveler.com.web.brid.gy about pitching: don't necessarily come in with your biggest idea, but instead what's most realistic for you to deliver and for the editor to get to know you.
