The Dominion is an excellent example of an independent publication that maintains rigorous standards for factual accuracy while providing ground-breaking information and analysis for social movements to reflect, strategize, and strengthen themselves. With the increasing power of corporate media to serve the interests of a powerful elite by upholding ideological and factual lies and inaccuracies, publications like the Dominion have been vital to bringing forward the voices of those most impacted by these lies, both locally and globally.

--Harsha Walia, Vancouver-based activist and writer with No One is Illegal, Palestine and Indigenous solidarity movements
