The Beaverton is a primarily online Canadian news satire publication, based in Toronto, Montreal and Whitehorse.[1] It features news stories, editorials, vox populi and other formats (such as university reviews) whose structure and layout mirror those of conventional newspapers but whose content is contorted to make humorous commentary on Canadian and world issues.
The publication was founded in 2010 by Queen's University alumni Luke Gordon Field, Alex Huntley and University of Toronto graduate Laurent Noonan (1982–2014).[2][1]
