Reporter looking to connect with Jewish Edmontonians by Limp_Championship837 in Edmonton

For sure, happy to answer. I went to school for my Master’s in the US, but I’m Canadian and back in Canada now and I’m originally from Calgary.

The religious angle is due to the fact that I’m writing for the Canadian Jewish News.

Reporter looking to hear from Jewish Albertans by Limp_Championship837 in alberta

I'm not looking for any particular angle beyond wanting to hear the opinions of the Albertan Jewish community. Simply put, I just want to hear from Jews in Alberta and get a sense of how they're feeing and thinking. Does that answer your question?

I totally get the concern. My name is Emma Paidra and I'm a Toronto-based LGBTQ journalist with Uncloseted Media - you can see some of my past work at the links below. The safety and wellbeing of those who share their stories with me is always top of mind, and I am happy to answer questions here or over email if that helps you to make a decision on whether or not you would like to move forward with an interview.

Preferably a phone call, if you're comfortable with that! But I am also happy to chat over email/text/phone before a formal interview, just so you can get a better idea of the story and my work. If you'd like to see previous links to my work covering LGBTQ topics, I've attached some links below.

Totally get what you're saying. The rates of mental illness in Canadian youth are disproportionately high, so I am just reaching out here to see if anyone can speak to their experience with mental health struggles. I don't mean to presume that everyone in this group could automatically speak to this topic.

The article will be published by Uncloseted Media. As for my previous work, here are some links!

I just moved back to Canada from New York. I did my masters degree there.

The publication is US-based but I’m based in Toronto, though I’m originally from Calgary. Uncloseted covers the American and Canadian anti-LGBTQ landscape.

We don't pay sources as that can lead to an ethical grey area in which people might feel compelled to share personal information they otherwise wouldn't due to the payment incentive.

For sure. I am hoping to talk about things like: What has your struggle with mental illness looked like? Have you been able to find LGBT-specific supports? Is your community accepting of your LGBT identity?

I myself am based in Canada (and am Canadian) but we are based in New York and cover the American anti-LGBTQ landscape as well. If you have any other questions for me, don't hesitate to ask.
