We achieve these goals, first and foremost, by publishing The Walrus, the most awarded magazine in Canada, named Magazine of the Year at the National Magazine Awards in June 2007. The Walrus is a monthly publication of ideas, sophistication, and wit, a place where readers, writers, and artists meet. It is supported by TheWalrus.ca, which offers both archives and original content, and by WalrusTV, which features exclusive documentaries inspired by stories from the magazine. In addition, the Walrus Foundation runs an intensive editorial, art, publishing, and foundation internship program for aspiring editors, writers, designers, and digital media, publishing, events, and non-profit development professionals. Through national events, the Walrus Foundation is committed to the public square, to celebrating Canadian talent, and to increasing participation in our democracy through spirited and intelligent debate—by lifting the magazine off the page and onto the stage in public forums.
