Bailey Seymour

After a stint with the Calgary Herald and the Nanaimo Bulletin, I ended up at the Black Press Victoria Hub in March 2024 with the hope of covering the south Island and its many communities. Though I report on a wide scope of subjects throughout the Capital Region, I have a focus on courts, military, business and politics.
