About

Oh Maple Canada is an independent Canadian publication about politics, public services and your wallet. We look at how government decisions, public spending and economic conditions affect people in Canada, and we show the evidence behind every number.

What we publish

• Data briefs built on the latest releases from Statistics Canada, the Bank of Canada, CMHC and other official sources.
• Analysis and explainers that put those numbers in context: over time, between provinces, and against other countries where the comparison is fair.
• The Corner Table, a clearly labelled space for public views, reader tips and claims that have not been confirmed.

Every factual article names its sources and links to them, so you can check the numbers yourself.

How we work

Oh Maple Canada uses AI tools to help with research, calculations and drafting. AI is never treated as a source: every figure must trace back to an identifiable official or published source, and every article is reviewed and approved by a human editor before publication. When we get something wrong, we correct it openly — see our Corrections page.

We apply the same standard of evidence to every government, party and organization, whichever level of government is responsible.

Who is behind it

Oh Maple Canada is owned and edited by Farid Dalaie, who approves everything we publish. It is independent: it is not affiliated with any political party, government or advocacy group.
