Pannozzo, L. and B. Wark. 2010. “Sable Island’s Cod Killer?” The Coast. July 1. [Gold winner, Enterprise Reporting - Print, Atlantic Journalism Awards, 2010.]

Pannozzo, L. 2010. “How to Kill 220,000 Seals on Sable Island: The DFO Plan.” The Coast. May 27. [This article went “viral” and was picked up by many national media outlets. The response was overwhelming and according to The Coast, received one of the highest number of comments, ever, from its readers.]

Pannozzo, L. 2001. “Ground Zero.” The Coast. [This feature article—re-published in The Ottawa Citizen and in Highgrader Magazine—investigates how fifty men employed at the Phalen Coal Mine in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, were unknowingly exposed to dangerous levels of radiation over a 12-year period, how some of them became sick, and how no one would take responsibility. It won First Place in the Atlantic Community Newspapers Association, Resources Story, 2002.]

Pannozzo, L. 1999. “The Law of the Sea.” The Coast. September 30. [This article dealt with the Mi’kmaq exercising their Treaty right to fish for sustenance, even if not in season.]

Pannozzo, L. 1999. “Fish Full of Dollars.” The Coast. November 18. [This piece was about how the real story about the fishing brawl was really between the lines—not in the tensions between native and non-native fishers, but in the differences between big business and small communities.]

Pannozzo, L. 1999. “This Little Piggy’s going to Market.” THIS Magazine. [This cover story looked at the politics and dangers of using pig livers in humans and explored this through a real-life story about a woman in Montreal, whose doctors used a pig liver in a highly controversial and some say “unethical” pre-transplant procedure that was not sanctioned in Canada. In 2000 the article was nominated for a National Journalism Award in the Medical Category.]
