Mark Iype primarily focuses on Government & Politics, with a particular emphasis on local news in Western Canada. Given the prevalence of government announcements and data citations in his coverage, he is likely to be most responsive to pitches that provide exclusive access to political figures or experts with deep insights into local policy changes, social issues, or breaking news related to government decisions.
As Mark's focus is mainly on British Columbia and Alberta within Western Canada, he would likely be interested in pitches related to these specific areas and their impact on communities. Pitches should highlight relevance to the region and offer unique perspectives grounded in data or expert analysis.
