DEADLINE: Canadian Hillman Prize

The Sidney Hillman Foundation awards the Canadian Hillman Prize to honor excellence in journalism in service of the common good. The Hillman Prizes seek out investigative reporting that draws attention to social or economic injustice and leads to meaningful public policy change. We strive to recognize discernment of a significant news story, resourcefulness and courage in reporting, skill in relating the story and the impact of the coverage.

The foundation awards three Canadian Hillman Prizes. The judges will select entries in the following categories: print/digital, broadcast (tv, radio, podcast) and local/community news. Entries must have been published in Canada in 2025 and have been widely accessible to a Canadian audience. Self-published work is not eligible. No entry fee.

The Canadian Hillman Prize winners will be awarded an honorarium and a certificate at our event to be held in Toronto on April 9, 2026.

Deadline: Jan 15, 2026
