When I went to journalism school 10 years ago, my parents thought that they would eventually read my articles in The Montreal Gazette. Today, that newspaper is a husk of its former self. But I get to explain that I’m working towards critical, independent, and sustainable journalism.

Enjoyed your analysis – I’m an elder, sweaty, regenerative farmer considering seeking the NDP federal leadership. The Breach Show indicated it planned to contact and interview candidates. I’d be glad to send you my outreach info that has received encouraging support.
Be well and stay well,
