This week, the Canadian Online Publishing Awards (COPA) released the finalists for the 2022 winners selection. We are so pleased to announce rabble.ca has made the shortlist in two categories!
Best Blog Column/Videocast/Podcast (Media): Natasha Darling’s feminist column
Since its founding, rabble has been committed to sharing feminist content from a wide variety of voices.
The idea of sex work as a feminist issue is often left out of media’s coverage of feminism. And that is part of why rabble is proud to have introduced Natasha Darling as a regular columnist.

Darling is a stripper and community-organizer in Toronto who writes under a pseudonym for her column on rabble. Darling’s monthly column focuses on smashing harmful stereotypes, sharing sex worker history, and advocating for sex worker inclusive legislation.
Darling is here to make it clear: feminists must fight for the rights for sex workers.

Best News/Sports Site (Media): rabble.ca
Since 2001, rabble has made a name for itself as a go-to place for progressive news and views in Canada. We cover the stories of transformative change and offer the perspectives and analysis that are often missed by other media.
Last year, rabble received the Silver Award in the Best Community News Site (Media) category. So we’re very excited to be recognized in the Best News Site category this year, alongside organizations with significantly larger budgets, like The Walrus and Global News.
“I am extremely proud of our publication for the important journalism they do every day, reporting on stories of social change and the actors who make change happen,” says rabble editor Nick Seebruch.
“As non-profit media, rabble.ca is a community-driven publication: we could not exist without the communities of content contributors, individual and organizational donors and partners and engaged audiences who permit our national publication to thrive and to create the original analysis and reporting that appears on our pages, as well as our flagship podcast rabble radio and monthly live political analysis show: Off the Hill,” says Kim Elliott, rabble publisher.
Congratulations to the other publications who were also nominated! We wish you the best of luck! We’re so excited to be the company of such a diverse and thriving media landscape.
COPA winners will be announced February 2023.
