Wanna be a Nar-bassador? r1 ... BECOME A MEMBER | SHARE THIS NEWSLETTER The Narwhal's masthead logo Narwhal co-founder Emma Gilchrist looks out at the water in Victoria while holding a Narwhal toque.. Dear PAOV,

It’s been a brutal couple of weeks for journalists in Canada.

First, Postmedia — which owns newspapers like the Vancouver Sun and Calgary Herald — announced it’s laying off 11 per cent of its editorial staff.

Then last week, Victoria’s upstart Capital Daily laid off half of its journalists.

As we watch many talented journalists lose their jobs, here at The Narwhal we find ourselves thanking our lucky stars for you, our loyal newsletter subscribers.

While for-profit media companies cut journalists to protect the bottom line, The Narwhal’s non-profit model is thriving — but it only works because thousands of people like you read and share The Narwhal.

In a world of ever-changing Facebook and Instagram algorithms, now more than ever we rely on word of mouth to reach new readers (a small fraction of whom, eventually, become members).

That’s why today we’re launching our spiffy new referral program.

Here’s the deal: get your friends to sign up for The Narwhal’s newsletter and we’ll send you Narwhal swag. The more friends you refer, the more sweet rewards we’ll send your way!

Refer just one friend and we’ll email you an awesome, printable Narwhal calendar. Refer six friends and you’ll get an exclusive Narwhal tote bag. It’s as simple as that: share your love of The Narwhal with your unique referral link and get free Narwhal swag, from stickers to socks to sweaters.

We know it’s easy to feel despair when you look at the state of the media landscape these days, but if you believe in our non-profit, ad-free public interest journalism, this is one really tangible, powerful way that you can contribute to a healthier news ecosystem.

Thanks for all you do,

Emma Gilchrist
