Andrew McIntosh

Andrew McIntosh brings decades of financial and investigative reporting expertise to the Global News team, and a track record of breaking news and exclusive investigations on both sides of our border.

As aerospace correspondent for Seattle’s Puget Sound Business Journal, his revelation that a Chinese plane manufacturer had secret plans to set up shop in Boeing’s backyard won a global Aerospace Media Award in 2021.

Between 2010-2016, Andrew was investigations editor for Agence QMI/QMI News Agency, leading a team that exposed the gravity of a corrupt Montreal cop’s massive police leak of informants’ identities; a fraud ring that trafficked $60 million in fake construction invoices; and thefts of airline passengers’ money by airport security screeners across Canada and the U.S.

Earlier, as a senior writer for The Sacramento Bee in Northern California, his probe of deaths and thousands of injuries caused by nail guns won an award from the Society of American Business Editors and Writers (SABEW). His probe of substance abusing paramedics and patchwork of local laws that allowed them to keep working led to a new state law and praise from then Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.

He is a coauthor of a best-selling book in French, Le Livre Noir des Hells Angels, which investigated fraud, money laundering, drug trafficking and murders by the infamous biker gang in Quebec.

During his career, Andrew has won three National Newspaper Awards and six Canadian Association of Journalists Awards for his outstanding investigative reporting. He is also a Certified Fraud Examiner.
