Reader-funded. Hyper-local. Proudly independent.

Five years of Ottawa journalism. Help us fund the next chapter — and get 40% discount.

Help fund our plan to provide in-depth coverage during the municipal election, launch a listening tour across the city, and give our journalists room to chase bigger stories. We need 150 new members by June 30 to get there — and as a reader-funded publication, that only happens with reader support.

Frequently asked questions

Where does my membership money go?

Your membership payment helps fund our journalism. Period.

Are your online payments secure?

All payments are processed through Stripe, the most widely used payment system on the internet. Stripe is a PCI Service Provider Level 1 which is the highest grade of payment processing security. All credit card information is encrypted, sent directly to Stripe and is never sent to our website server. This means that we are PCI compliant and any breach of our website won’t result in stolen credit card information.

Can I give more than the amounts above?

Yes, of course. You can always send more via an e-transfer to [email protected]
