Here are all the rest of the media on the move in March and February:
Good luck to @emcsheff who starts a new position today with the Indigenous Reporters Program for @jhrnews. Elizabeth is a rising star in Canadian journalism and was a @natobserver MVP. Wishing you all the best! #JournalismMatters

A little news: Starting next month, I'll be the city hall reporter for @CBCToronto, covering all things #TOpoli. Exciting times ahead during an election year in this beautiful city.

Some personal news… I've been offered — and have accepted — a position with @TheTorontoSun … very sad to say goodbye to #yyc and my Calgary Postmedia family, but I'm looking forward to the challenges ahead

1. I have some news to share. I'll be joining Global News National Online Investigative team, and I'll be based in Ottawa. I will continue to report on the Vancouver Model of money laundering in real estate and casinos, and all sorts of corruption, among many new investigations.

After 9 years in Alberta, BC and New Brunswick I’m excited to finally be coming home for good. I’m officially @globalhalifax ‘s newest videojournalist. Reporting in the city I grew up in has been a goal of mine since I started in broadcasting and I couldn’t be more thrilled. pic.twitter.com/RAn0ko807u

Some personal news: I have accepted a contract position in the parliamentary bureau of Canadian Press. I am sad to be leaving my journo family at the @PEIGuardian after 11 years, but I'm excited by the new opportunities I will experience covering politics in Ottawa.

Congratulations to @BaBrenna. She came to us in 2016 and interned in Munich in 2017. She graduates next month and then she's back to Europe to work at CBC's London UK bureau this fall. Nicely played Brenna! pic.twitter.com/FndfIgyP9I
