About Me

For more than a decade, writer and editor Craille Maguire Gillies has been making a highly unscientific (and expensive) investigation into which province is the most bureaucratic by moving from Ontario to Saskatchewan to Quebec to Alberta and, lately, British Columbia. Turns out, getting a health card and driver’s license is a nightmare in both official languages. A former editor at the travel magazine enRoute (where she shared a National Magazine Award in the Words and Pictures category in 2007), her work has appeared in the Globe and Mail and Canadian Geographic. She was senior editor at the next-gen business magazine Unlimited and was launch editor of the magazine as an online-only monthly publication. Most recently, she filled in as an editor at Vancouver magazine and participated in the Literary Journalism program at the Banff Centre.

She is currently a contributing editor for Eighteen Bridges and a story editor for Reader’s Digest Canada. She is based in London. Reports on British bureaucracy TK.
