Susanne Reber is an investigative journalist with the CBC News Investigative team. She has led projects on Censorship, Workplace Safety, Canadians losing their citizenship due to quirks of the law and government bureaucracy, and most recently CBC’s coverage of police use of tasers. Susanne also led the Prescribed to Death team, investigating adverse drug reactions among Canada’s seniors.
