As they say, *ahem*, some personal news: After 20 years in journalism, including a decade at CBC News, I'm moving on to something different. I’m launching my own independent practice as a Data & Storytelling Strategist. Yes, I'm giving up a stable job in order to hang up my own shingle. Why? 🧵👇

All the best to you Robson. So much I could say - but perhaps most important: your daily updated virus/cases/immunization visuals during the pandemic's waves were a *key* part to us preserving sanity and staying COVID free until well after our 3-generation household all received 2 doses each. Kudos!

Oh wow that is really validating to hear. I'm so glad that information was so directly useful during that scary time. The real power of data lies in how it's used to help people, imo, so that warms my heart. Thank you!

Same! Getting that u6 vax took so long! I can't wait to see what you do next Robson. Your cbe absence data scraping was my intro to scraping data... and now I'm hooked. I've also learned so much about data viz from your visuals!
