Hannay to cover small business for Globe and Mail

Chris Hannay

The Globe and Mail in Toronto has tapped Chris Hanney to cover small business on its business news desk.

“My focus is small businesses in the pandemic: the crisis and challenges, but also (hopefully!) telling stories of recovery and rebuilding,” he wrote on Twitter.

Hannay is currently an assistant editor in The Globe’s Ottawa bureau. He writes the Politics Briefing newsletter each day, which he launched in 2015. He started his journalism career as a summer staffer at The Globe in 2010 and held a variety of editorial roles until he joined the parliamentary bureau in 2014.

In addition to assigning and editing the politics file, he also writes features and arts stories. He won a National Newspaper Award for arts reporting in 2018.
