Don’t turn your back on the facts. Fund our fact checking.

Those who hold power are turning their backs on the facts. Meta just announced the defunding of its fact-checking program, Canadian politicians are making calls to defund the CBC, and the incoming American president has embraced misinformation. This means finding facts is going to get a lot harder.

But getting facts should be a universal right, and The Walrus needs your help now more than ever to make that possible. At The Walrus, we check every single fact in our stories so that you can have paywall-free access to the most trustworthy, accurate reporting on our site, every single day. But facts aren’t free. That’s why we need your help. If you are able, support The Walrus with a donation to help ensure we can always bring you the facts.

Canada’s conversation. Made in Canada.

If you’re anything like me, US president Donald Trump’s tariff threats and the looming trade war that could result from them has made you hyper aware of just how much of what Canada consumes comes from the US. News consumption is no exception.

In moments like these, I am proud to be a part of The Walrus. The Walrus was established in Canada in 2003 and, since then, has been committed to exploring ideas and issues most vital to people in this country and beyond its borders. So if you believe in journalism that is made in Canada for all, consider supporting The Walrus.
