Some personal news: I’ve decided to leave @CBCEdmonton. So has @charlesrusnell. Today is the last work day for both of us. #ableg #yeg #yegmedia 1/

We're not leaving journalism (or retiring). I strongly believe in investigative reporting’s value as a public service and can’t imagine doing anything else.

There is a critical need for this kind of reporting in Alberta. But I won’t be doing it at CBC Edmonton anymore. 2/

We both plan to take a break over the holidays and then we’ll be looking for new opportunities and places for our work in 2022.

Tips welcome as always, just at a different address: [e-mail]. I’m also available on Signal (new number) and via DM. 3/

Thanks to everyone who has followed our reporting, the many great colleagues we’ve worked with over the past nine and a half years, and – above all – the sources who made our stories possible, often at great personal risk.

Hope you continue to follow and support our work. /end
