Welcome to ConvoyWatch
This is a pop-up newsletter dedicated to convoy drama and other right-wing happenings in Canada
Hello and thanks for signing up for ConvoyWatch.
I’ve reported on and written about right-wing politics for over a decade, particularly in my day job as Editor of PressProgress.
The thing is, in covering this stuff, there’s a lot of odds and ends that don’t make it past the final draft. Sometimes it’s too obscure or sometimes it just doesn’t fit with the most important points of a news story.
That’s why I launched ConvoyWatch — it’s a free pop-up newsletter focused on taking a closer look at convoy and right-wing activities in Canada.
Each week, I’ll share the latest convoy drama and other details about right-wing happenings in Canada that aren’t being reported elsewhere to give you a better understanding of these right-wing movements and actors.
Hope you find this newsletter interesting and insightful.
- Luke
