Elections end. Accountability doesn’t.

At The Walrus, we believe trustworthy journalism helps safeguard democracy. In the lead-up to election day, we were proud to provide the research, context, and analysis you needed to cast an informed vote.

As the news cycle charges ahead, we remain committed to the independent, responsible journalism you trust to make sense of what matters and scrutinize Canada’s new leadership every step of the way.

If our stories have informed or inspired you, consider making a donation. Every contribution helps keep fact-based, accessible journalism available to everyone—especially on the issues that define our generation.

Thank you for your support.
