If you’re a dedicated newshound, here’s your chance to determine the headlines, not just read them.
As part of your due diligence, please research Thompson and be honest with yourself about whether or not you can commit to life in a remote community (an 8-hour drive to Winnipeg).
Please do that BEFORE you apply.

- Can research stories to find out what’s at the heart of any matter
- Has strong organizational skills and the ability to work under pressure
- Has completed relevant courses in radio broadcasting
- Has a valid driver’s license
