WSJ seeks corporate reporter in Canada

The Wall Street Journal’s Canada bureau is looking for an energetic reporter to cover a broad swath of Canada’s biggest publicly-traded companies, including the major players in the transportation, telecommunications and media industries.

These companies, including Bombardier, CP Rail and telecom giants BCE Inc. and Rogers Communications have given rise to some of the biggest and most politicized Canadian business stories of the last year, including the oil-by-rail controversy and the fight between the wireless players and Ottawa.

The successful candidate will show the ability to delve deeply into these beats to deliver scoops and in-depth enterprise stories of interest to a global audience. Fluent French is an asset. The position can be in Montreal or Toronto, depending on the candidate.
