The Discourse team is preparing for another year of in-depth, meaningful, community journalism on Vancouver Island and we need your help!

Our award-winning reporting highlights local solutions to real-world problems, lifts up people who are making a difference in the community and holds people accountable as we dig into issues that matter to you. But we need you to help us decide which major stories we’re going to tackle this year.

Our goal is to fill gaps in the news cycle and report stories of interest that may not be getting a lot of coverage, or in-depth coverage, from other outlets. Take a short survey by clicking the button below to let us know your thoughts. 

All of the questions are optional, so please feel free to answer whichever you prefer. And, if possible, be precise! It’ll help us narrow in on specific story ideas for the year.

We appreciate your input and look forward to sharing more local stories with you in 2026.
