All year, we’ve reported on a Canada that’s feeling the squeeze—soaring rents, climbing grocery bills, and the daily struggles of many families—and the policy decisions causing this. Understanding these issues, and the solutions being proposed, isn’t easy in a world awash with misinformation and partisan spin.
That’s where The Walrus comes in. Our mission is to cut through the noise, to connect the dots between the policies debated in Parliament and the realities playing out in your neighbourhood. To do that, we need your support. Help us keep telling the stories that matter. Donate today.
