About us
The Tyee is an award-winning, independent online news magazine. We're dedicated to publishing lively, informative news and views, not dumbed down fluff. We, like the tyee salmon for which we are named, roam free and go where we wish. At the time of our launch we said we believe many people in British Columbia are "hungry for news and comment that reflects their actual lives, their own values." And that an electronic magazine able to reach all of B.C. was needed "because 'The Big Smoke' of Vancouver/Victoria hears too little from the rest of the province and together we have plenty of challenges and solutions to talk about." We promised: "At The Tyee you'll find investigative reporting no one else is doing, and fresh viewpoints from all over B.C." Since then, The Tyee has attracted some of the best journalists in B.C. who have broken many important stories. We've published viewpoints banished from corporate media and shined a light on corners of the province Big Media ignores. We've provided a showcase for young talent and a forum for readers who post their opinions after our stories. The Globe and Mail has said we publish "some of the best investigative reporting in the province" and when the Senate Committee on the status of Canadian news media came to Vancouver, they invited Tyee editors to share their vision of improved media democracy. Help us keep independent media alive. Visit http://thetyee.ca today.

.Paul Willcocks: I’ve been a newspaper publisher, editor, reporter and am co-ordinating The Tyee election coverage with a great team. I have never wanted my media outlet to become the story. But that’s what happened, due to the Conservatives’ tactics.

Jeevan Sangha: I wonder what it would take for celebrity production teams to act on the work that local organizations specializing in addressing intimate partner violence do every day. If they could, “It Ends with Us” would be a different film.
