Chris Hannay writes about the business of health care. Although Canada has universal public health insurance, much of the system is powered by private business, from doctor's offices to pharmaceuticals. He looks at issues such as how business decisions affect patient access, how professionals' practices are affected by government rules, or how innovative companies are trying to solve complex programs.

Before that, Chris worked in a variety of roles across departments. He covered issues affecting small businesses at the height of the COVID-19 crisis. He has written for the editorial board. He was an editor in the Ottawa bureau, helping direct coverage of federal politics and writing The Globe's popular daily newsletter about politics. And he has written about arts, winning a National Newspaper Award in 2018 for coverage of a scandal at the National Gallery of Canada.
