Delete. As always, journalists do not get an "inherent" notability freebie just because they exist — but winning a student journalism award is not an article-clinching notability claim in and of itself. The references here are primary sources, like his staff profiles and contributor directories on the self-published websites of his own employers, not reliable source media coverage about him. And checking the article history, it was clearly created to WP:COATRACK some allegations of unethical reportage that were referenced entirely to blogs rather than any evidence whatsoever of reliable source coverage about the matter in real media — but Wikipedia is not a forum to attack people for stuff that bloggers merely allege.

Delete - editing Canadaland or being a staff writer for a newspaper are not by themselves notable accomplishments. If there were deep coverage in secondary sources about the person. I'd change my mind, Has the subject appeared on network TV such as CBC? Bearian (talk) 16:28, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I can't find any sources to support this person meeting the GNG. Links used in the article are all affiliated. — Insertcleverphrasehere ^{(or here)}_{(click me!)} 02:59, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
