And the winner is...

Yesterday, Public Eye reported a new editor-in-chief for the Times Colonist had been chosen. And now our spies tell us the successful candidate is Lucinda Chodan. Ms. Chodan was most recently deputy editor at The Gazette in Montreal, having also been the newspaper's readership development editor. She was promoted to that position in 2002, previously serving as the newspaper's assistant managing editor (features) and entertainment editor (among other jobs).
