This award recognizes the achievements and excellent work of Canadian journalists who are at the beginning stages of their career. Candidates must meet the specific criteria to be eligible.
Inductees will include new leaders who are shaping the future, the innovators who enhance newsgathering, and the people who maintain the highest standards of our craft, and who displays excellence in the coverage of original (enterprise) journalism on a single topic, investigative reporting, or continuing coverage of a beat or a major breaking and developing story.
Each year, the RTDNA Canada Board will review nominations and select an inductee.
