We bring new changemakers, thoughts and ideas that observe the shifting cultural landscape in Canada to one platform. This magazine will include critical perspectives of our national identity, celebrate its arts, host honest conversations about its complex challenges, and share ideas that help shape the future of our diverse society. Our hope is that our stories will influence the global community to co-exist in love and harmony.


Newest brings together bold new voices representing our bold country. It features everything from frank discussions to commissioned digital art experiences. This is Canada now, current and future.

A playground for
inspired voices.
