Advertise with The Northline Brief
The Northline Brief is a free weekly newsletter planned for Sundays, covering Canadian and global economics, business, technology, science and geopolitics. We accept a small number of clearly labelled sponsorships from organisations that are relevant to our readers.
What a sponsorship can look like
Simple, labelled, and limited in number.
- Sponsor message. A short, labelled message in an issue.
- Sponsored content block. A clearly labelled block with your content, reviewed against our disclosure rules.
- Co-published research. Where appropriate, research prepared with a partner organisation and labelled as such.
Dates, formats and fees are agreed per placement. We do not sell inventory that we cannot yet deliver.
What we can and cannot tell you today
No numbers we have not measured.
The newsletter has not launched, so there is no audience, open-rate or click figure to report, and we will not estimate one. Once it is sending, we will report only measured figures, with how they were measured. If your decision depends on audience size, ask us for current measured data before committing.
Editorial independence and disclosure
Sponsors pay for placement, not for coverage.
- Sponsored content is always labelled as sponsored and kept visually distinct from editorial content.
- Sponsors cannot influence research findings, forecasts or model outputs, or which stories we cover.
- We may decline any sponsor or message, including after approval, if it conflicts with these rules.
- Readers' email addresses are never shared with sponsors.
