Biography

Zachary Kamel is an award-winning investigative journalist and producer based in Montreal, Canada. His reporting has been featured in a wide range of print and online publications including: DIE ZEIT, The Toronto Star, CBC News, The New York Times, The Eastern Door Newspaper, VICE, Ricochet Media, Eater.com and other outlets, covering everything from how an AWOL member of the Canadian military had illegally crossed the U.S. / Canadian border to give arms training to a neo-Nazi terror group, to the rise and sudden fall of a sushi empire on the west coast that left hundreds of workers in the lurch. As the country prepared for a lockdown in March 2020, he helped launch Project Pandemic: Canada Reports on COVID-19, a collaborative data project with the Institute of Investigative Journalism at Concordia University. Their work has helped connect journalists across the country with reliable data and interactive ArcGIS maps of hot zones which update in real-time. His work with CBC Radio took home the 2017 RTDNA for best long feature in the country. In 2019 he was selected to participate in the Investigative Journalism Intensive at the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity.
