Some news! After six years making Commons together, @arshymann and I have left to start up our own thing. It’s called The Hatchet. A podcast and newsletter focused on power and money in Canada. Listen now and support us! hatchetmedia.substack.com

To everyone who supported Commons over the years, THANK YOU. I absolutely loved making that show. I’m so proud of the work we did there and can’t wait to show you what we’re working on next with The Hatchet.

Journalism is a team sport and Commons is no exception. We never would have been able to do half of what we did without the contributions of tiff lam, Damilola Onime and Noor Azrieh. I love you guys.

And a huge shoutout to Kevin’s not here. Your saint-like patience in the early and most chaotic days of Commons should get you some kind of award. You encouraged every weird idea we ever had and taught me so much.

Kevin’s not here Please consider subscribing and supporting The Hatchet. We’ll be pulling back the curtain on Canada and bringing you incredible podcasts every week. We want to do this work for a long time but we’ll need your help to do it. hatchetmedia.substack.com Thank you!
