Here are all the rest of the media on the move in September:

?On a side note:
I'm leaving Queen's Park next week to join the Globe's Calgary bureau. Reporting #onpoli has been an absolute blast. And now I can't wait to tell exciting stories about Alberta. Hold on to your hat.#AlbertaBound

I'm going to join the growing list of journalists announcing personal news this week:
Today is my last day @CBCOttawa. I’m off on a new adventure to do social media for @ElectionsCanada during the federal election.???️ pic.twitter.com/TvIuKnu4ds

Time for some ~personal news~ (ugh always wanted to say that): Starting this week, I'm moving to a new role! I'll be bridging gaps for @globeandmail's afternoon/evening coverage as a Live News Editor.

? Job news alert: I’m excited to announce that I’ll be moving to Toronto at the end of the month to take on the Queen’s Park bureau. ?

I’ll miss my Ottawa colleagues SO MUCH, especially the best boss in the world @RobertFife, but looking forward to adventures ahead in #onpoli

— Laura Stone (@l_stone) September 17, 2018

Now's as good a time as ever to note: I officially move to reporting for the @globeandmail's National team on Monday. I'm very grateful for everything I learned during the last few months in @globebusiness, and I'm extremely excited for the stories ahead. As always, send tips!

A hearty congratulations to the wickedly-sharp, always-in-a-good-mood @itsmarkmedley on deputy editor ? And a very loud, standing ovation to the outgoing deputy @rgilroy, an outstanding editor and human. I’m really lucky to work wth both of them @GlobeDebate

— Amberly McAteer (@amberlym) September 15, 2018

It has been a wonderful year of anchoring the early morning news, weather and traffic during @YourMorning! Today was my last regular day on the shift; starting Monday, @NancyCTV will be back in the chair and I will be spending more time outside the building as a reporter. pic.twitter.com/hs8tOZeJug

— Krista Simpson (@KristaSimpson) September 14, 2018

Today was my last @Todaystrucking. It’s been an amazing year that’s allowed me to tell wonderful stories from Canada’s #trucking industry. I’ll miss everyone there as I move to the next thing, which I’m pleased to say is as a @TJProvincial reporter on Sept. 24. N.B. here I come!

— Elizabeth Bate (@ElizabethBate) September 14, 2018

A job development, for anyone who cares about such things: I'm now a news reporter at the @nationalpost.

— Nick Faris (@nickmfaris) September 14, 2018

Some personal news, as they say: I've decided to leave VICE after many years here. My last day is tomorrow! Huge thank-you to everyone who's supported my work here. All that said, I will now be available for freelance work and am looking forward to moving on.

— ???? (@a__tierney) September 13, 2018

In case it wasn’t evident, I’m excited to say I’m launching @HuffPostCanada’s Queen’s Park bureau of one. ✍?

Let me know what questions you have about Doug Ford’s government, what coverage you want to see, etc and I will do my best!
