Are you an American in Toronto voting in the U.S. election? Democrat, Republican or third party — I want to hear from you! Reach out via DM or email me at atakagi@thestar.ca


Looking to talk to people about our strange obsession with area codes for a @TorontoStar story (are you proud or embarrassed by yours, do you only date people from a certain area code, etc.) Message or email me at nbawaan@thestar.ca if interested!

For @Ubyssey’s 2024 provincial elections coverage, reporters broke down important voting issues for students, wrote candidate profiles and recapped debates and panels. Here’s The Ubyssey’s guide to the BC provincial elections.

There’s hundreds of plastic water bottles floating on Toronto’s harbour. Each one has a message inside @TorontoStar story by me and @nbawaan about the new art installation in Harbour Square Basin thestar.com/news/gta/there…


Having a byline on the front page of today's paper felt like a good time to say: I'm working @TorontoStar's Radio Room this summer! I'll be covering breaking news + sometimes other happenings in the GTA. Full story on Daniel, the 16 yo U of T grad, here: thestar.com/news/gta/meet-…

On Monday’s @TorontoStar A1: Fire consumes St. Anne’s Anglican Church and its priceless artwork: @IlyasHSN & Michele Henry report, 📸 @Lachancephoto Plus: A resignation from Israel’s war cabinet. And a 16-year-old is graduating from U of T: @nbawaan reports, 📸 R.J. Johnston.

My latest piece for @thismagazine's drug issue on how BC's drug decriminalization policy is (or isn't) being implemented in collective housing settings, from university dorms to shelters. Thank you to those I interviewed + @sarratch for your edits and guidance!

Some drugs are legalized for personal use in B.C., @nbawaan reports, but for those living in private institutions like university residences, different rules may apply: this.org/2023/11/10/pol…

Five is the new four: UBC students are extending their undergrad degrees. More and more students are taking at least five years to graduate, according to data from UBC’s Planning and Institutional Research Office (PAIR). Read more here: ubyssey.ca/news/ubc-stude…

I’m officially in my freelance era! I wrote a feature for @georgiastraight’s pride issue (on stands now!) on how drag and burlesque intersect in Vancouver. Thank you @vsmwells for the guidance + to all the performers for their insights. straight.com/arts/we-all-up…


My first feature (+ cover story) for @Ubyssey on how @UBCACAM builds the long history of the Asian diaspora in Vancouver! I loved talking to fellow diaspora about being part of the diaspora and this cool program. Online version here: ubyssey.ca/features/acam-…

On the cover: a feature by @nbawaan about the origins of @UBCACAM after Japanese-Canadian students interned during WWII were given honorary degrees.
