I’m working on a story about an event in #Halifax today. It’s becoming more frequent that I’m the only reporter at some events such at the recent town halls with Mayor Andy Fillmore. I really enjoy covering these stories. They’re produced by a real reporter (me) and not AI!

It may also be worth noting that I checked the letter when Nathan posted it and did not see my name, so it may have been added since last night.
