During his tenure as City Hall reporter for Global Toronto he covered the turmoil surrounding Mayor Rob Ford, and at an unscheduled press conference, asked the question that resulted in Ford's admission of crack cocaine use while mayor.[3][4] During an investigation he uncovered major structural issues with Toronto's Gardiner Expressway that had gone unreported to municipal politicians.[5] Proskow has covered major international stories including the Royal Wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton, the Alberta floods of 2013 and President Barack Obama's inaugural visit to Canada.
