Why This Event and Why Now?
At a time when responsible high-quality journalism is an anomaly in both the traditional and social media landscapes, the National Post stands above and apart. Day after day, the National Post delivers evidence-based reporting and informed commentary. It upholds the basic yet critical standard of putting fact over fiction and objectivity over bias, a standard that is shockingly absent at many other tv, radio, newspaper and social media outlets, in Canada and internationally. Since the October 7, 2023 massacre in Israel, the National Post and responsible journalism has become more apparent than ever. At varying degrees and across all forms of media, facts, history, context and objectivity have disappeared. In their place, lies, obfuscation, inaccuracies and bias have taken root. In less than a year, Canada and Canadian society have changed right before our eyes.
For Canada to function well as a country and for Canadians to be able to make good choices about their leadership and the policies that leadership should promote, it is imperative that accurate, objective and unbiased information be available and accessible. We appreciate and thank Rob Roberts and his team at the National Post for taking on this immense responsibility, which is to the benefit of all Canadians and to those elsewhere who look to Canada as an example.
