Forget the bots and billionaires.
This election season, we’re bringing you nothing but trusted, independent journalism.

On U.S. election night, I stayed up late with the TV playing and the New York Times Presidential Election page open on my laptop, refreshing constantly for the ballot counts. Odds are, you were glued to the updates too. You know what happened: the stunning comeback of Donald Trump, a convicted felon who tried to overturn the 2020 presidential election.

What made this political season especially exhausting, aside from Trump’s incendiary rhetoric, was the tidal wave of misinformation. As we brace for Canada’s own national election, the need for reliable information is more urgent than ever. If you want a fearlessly independent media source you can trust amidst the bots and billionaires with agendas, you’ve come to the right place.

At The Walrus, we’re committed to delivering fair and fact-checked reporting that informs, engages, and provokes conversation. But we can’t do it alone. Stand with us to support a future where truth and integrity come first. Donate today.
