Canadian Politics Independent Media (progressive)
Independent newspapers, magazines, podcasts with a significant amount of content on Canadian politics. Independent meaning not owned or influenced by massive companies or government. This list excludes outlets that I perceive as hateful, anti-science, or hard right.
