We don’t have much time left
so please don’t touch me.
I’m not sure if it’s because I’m scared
or just sacred.
If I could change anything about us
it would be our area code.
I’m the slowest rapidcycler in the whole wide world-
unhook me from the drip.
We are all entitled to our own hyperbole
especially you.
Montreal has made a fool of me
for the second last time.
I’m not suggesting we’re all losers.
I’m insisting upon it.
Fact-based journalism is our passion and your right.
We’re asking readers like you to support The Walrus so we can continue to lead the Canadian conversation. This past year has seen some serious changes in Canada, from the mainstreaming of cannabis to the fallout of the SNC-Lavalin affair to our response to COVID-19.
We feature Canadian voices and expertise on stories that travel beyond our shores, and we firmly believe that this reporting can change the world around us. The Walrus covers it all with originality, depth, and thoughtfulness, bringing diverse perspectives to bear on essential conversations while setting the highest bar for fact-checking and rigour.
None of this would be possible without you.
As a nonprofit, we work hard to keep our costs low and our team lean, but this is a model that requires individual support to pay our contributors fairly and maintain the strength of our independent coverage. Donations of $20 or more will receive a charitable tax receipt.
Every contribution makes a difference.
Support The Walrus from as little as $2. Thank you.
