The Corner Table
What Canadians are talking about over coffee.
This is not reporting. Items here are chatter, tips and claims in progress. Each one carries a status label, and nothing is presented as fact until it is confirmed against primary sources. Confirmed items are kept here — labelled, with their sources — while our verified journalism lives in the reporting sections.
What the labels mean
- UNVERIFIED CHATTER
- Circulating widely, checked by nobody yet. Treat it as a question, not a fact.
- WE'RE CHECKING
- A reporter is actively working on it. Nothing here is established yet.
- READER TIP
- Sent in by a reader. We have not independently verified it.
- CONFIRMED
- Checked against primary sources, which are listed with the item.
Nothing at the table right now.
