About The Loonie Post

The Loonie Post is Canada’s most trusted source of news that hasn’t happened yet, but probably will once the next federal budget is released. Founded in a drafty Tim Hortons during a polar vortex, we provide a vital service to a nation that is too polite to point out that the emperor has no clothes, mostly because we are all wearing three layers of wool and a parka.

While other news outlets are busy receiving government subsidies to tell you that everything is fine, The Loonie Post remains fiercely independent and dedicated to the high-minded pursuit of making fun of people in Ottawa. We believe in the traditional Canadian values of complaining about the weather, apologizing to inanimate objects we bump into, and questioning why a head of lettuce now costs more than a used 2012 Honda Civic.

At The Loonie Post, we don’t just report the news; we manifest the absurdity of living in a country where the national bird is essentially a honking biological weapon and our currency is named after a bird that laughs at its own misfortune. We are the voice of the silent majority who just wants to be left alone to watch hockey and wonder where all our tax dollars went.
