About The Walrus

The Walrus launched in September of 2003 with a straightforward mandate: to be a Canadian general-interest magazine with an international outlook. We are committed to publishing the best work by the best writers from Canada and elsewhere on a wide range of topics for readers who are curious about the world. The Walrus is published by a registered non-profit charitable foundation.

If you're a writer interested in contributing to The Walrus, please see our writer's guidelines and read the print version of the magazine. Aspiring editors and art directors should have a look at our internship program; advertisers can find out about dates and rates on our advertising page. We hope you'll enjoy The Walrus; let us know what you think.
