CABJ Member in The News

Logged on to the Toronto Star's web site this morning and saw a story headlined "9 years on contracts and no full time job in sight."

My first reaction: sounds like working at the Star.

Turns out the story wasn't about the Star, but it was about the journalism industry. 

The journalist they profile? 

Long-time CABJ member Dayo Kefentse.
