Help us tell the downtown stories that matter most

At TorontoToday, we believe the news should always be available to everyone — free of charge and easy to access. No subscriptions. No paywalls. No gimmicks.

That will never change. The primary mission of our local journalists is to help strengthen and connect the downtown core — which means our high-quality community reporting must be accessible to all, not just those readers who can afford it.

Like every local news source operated by Village Media, TorontoToday will be dedicated to telling the stories that matter most: the ones right in your neighbourhood. Our goal is to cover the city’s core like never before, with a focus on the people, places, events and information that make downtown Toronto such a unique and vibrant community.

What’s the best way to support TorontoToday? Read our reporting. Share your feedback. Send tips to the newsroom. Tell others to check us out.

And if you believe in the important work we’re doing — and you are able to pay a little bit of money — we’d be grateful for your support of local, on-the-ground journalism. Monthly contributions are capped at $9, and you can cancel anytime.

Either way, we are excited you’re here. When local news thrives, everyone benefits.
