The Canadian Record is a monthly print magazine mailed directly to Canadians who rely exclusively on legacy media. It looks like what they already trust. It reads like what they already respect. And it covers what they've never been told.
Independent Canadian journalism has never been more rigorous — or more invisible to the people who most need it. Millions of Canadians over 65 dismiss anything they didn't see on CBC or read in a major daily. Not because they're incurious, but because print is the medium they trust.
Over 75% of Canadians agree that government-funded journalism makes it harder for reporters to hold government accountable. The skepticism is already there. The reporting exists. What's missing is a delivery method those readers will actually open.
"The problem isn't the audience. It's the delivery method."
The Canadian Record reaches its readers the way they've always received trusted news: through their mailbox. Gifted anonymously by family members, adult children, and friends who want the people they love to have access to the full picture.
The recipient never has to seek it out. They never have to visit a website, follow a channel, or trust an algorithm. It arrives. They read it — because boomers read print, and print is where they decide what's true.
Every story is factual. Every claim is cited. Every source is documented. The Canadian Record is not opinion media. It is a publication of record for stories Canada's mainstream outlets have chosen not to tell.
Independent journalists, researchers, and writers submit original articles through our portal. Real name or pen name — the writer decides.
Every submission is reviewed for factual accuracy, citation integrity, and journalistic standards. We do not publish opinion. We publish evidence.
Selected stories are typeset into a monthly print edition and mailed across Canada — to recipients gifted a subscription by someone who cares about them.
Subscribers purchase the magazine as a gift for someone in their life. The recipient receives it in their mailbox, no opt-in required.
The Canadian Record is currently gauging interest from independent Canadian journalists, writers, and researchers who want to reach an audience that has never encountered their work — and wouldn't seek it out online. This is a chance to put rigorous, cited reporting in front of the people who most need to read it, in the format they trust most.
We are in early development and building our contributor network now. If this resonates with you, we'd like to hear from you.
No commitment required. We'll follow up with full details as the project develops.
