The Toronto Star offers three internships:  

 

The Radio RoomRadio room reporters monitor emergency scanners, do police checks, monitor radio and television news and report stories that are often crime or trauma related.  Interns are hired part-time throughout the year, and for the summer months.

Summer Program: The 16-week contracts for reporters are all general assignment positions in the city department and successful applicants could be writing features, covering crimes, courts, inquests, breaking news or health and education stories, in other words, anything that’s happening.

Year Long Internship: This one-year program (September to September) offers a range of newsroom experiences and is open to graduates under the age of 30, who have never held a full-time, permanent staff position at a Canadian daily.
