My colleague Dan Bilefsky, who has returned to his native Montreal to join our Canada reporting team, is embarking
on an exciting, new project as The Times continues to expand its presence on the ground in Canada.
A native of Windsor, Ontario, Ian Austen was educated in Toronto, lives in Ottawa
and has reported about Canada for The New York Times for over a decade.
