What our journalism can accomplish

‘The first video I ever made with The Breach was on why we need to support the movement for Land Back. Today, it’s being used in educational settings everywhere—in universities and colleges and children’s classrooms too. When I give talks, people will say, ‘I saw your video and it helped me understand the issue.’

That’s what we do at The Breach—reach people where they are at, with bold ideas, principled analysis, and critical investigations.” – Pam Palmater, scholar and author

I want you to know that up until my, forced retirement, health issues, I would have been a paid subscriber. Unfortunately now I’m not able to afford the subscription.
I do however, look very forward to reading these excellent, informative and well written articles. I’m deeply sorry for not being in a position to pay for a subscription.

I think that, by implying they’re the same, you’re being a bit tough on Carney. For one thing, he wants to increase CBC funding, not de-fund it completely! I also think he has a more open, inclusive view of government. It could have been a LOT worse!
