Allowing an american hedge fund to take over most Canadian newspapers was a huge mistake.

    Please support your favorite newspaper.

    Good journalism is expensive. When local newspapers and independent newsrooms collapse, communities face severe consequences: public corruption goes unchecked, local government spending balloons without oversight, and disinformation fills the vacuum.

      We need to subscribe to newspapers again. Or at least pick up the weekend edition. That said, I wish there was a way I could pay x amount each month and get access to a handful of newspapers.

      What about publications like The Walrus?

      They are fully Canadian (AFAIK) but not quite a newspaper. I’ve been tempted to subscribe but their articles are usually fairly long and fleshed out (which is a good thing, I just don’t always have the wherewithal to read them consistently)
