About Us

Capital News Online is an award-winning online news magazine run by students in the Journalism program at Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada. Students in both the graduate and undergraduate programs work together to find, develop, research, write and produce stories about the affairs of the Canadian government, including, but not restricted to, Parliament Hill.

Their goal is to produce an interesting, informative, clearly-written and easy-to-navigate electronic magazine every two weeks. We hope you think they have reached their goal.
