People sometimes ask how much a subscription costs. I find this funny, because it's obviously a lapse on my part, but I grew up digitally native so I always just hit the Subscribe button to find out what the cost is. OF COURSE some people disagree that this is a good strategy! Sorry about that.
So: Subscriptions cost $5 a month. Or $50 a year (a 16.7% savings over the monthly rate). Or any larger amount you feel like paying: "Founding Member" is pre-set at $250 a year, but you can reset that number to any amount larger than $50. As always, I say this because I mean it, I'm grateful for all subscribers, including those who don't pay.
I haven’t told my husband I subscribe because he might say we can’t afford that. You are my “guilty pleasure.” (You, and Dairy Milk Fruit and Nut bars.)
It must feel very rewarding to start a new Substack adventure and discover such a loyal following. To go from zero to needing a producer in such a short time is a beacon of hope for the sustainability of quality journalism in Canada.
So glad you are continuing this venture and it is wonderful that you can now hire a producer. It is also good to know you appreciate opinionated subscribers. We are that. An Emergency in Ottawa was great and I will be ordering Trudeau on the Ropes. Isn't it great to go to work each day and like your boss?
I understand the use of podcasts: however, I find I have time to either read or listen, not both. A couple of my favourite substack authors have weekly podcasts lasting an hour or so and i wish there was a text copy available to read/scan. i feel that I am missing out but there are only so many hours in the day and reading gives me much more enjoyment than listening.
Thank-you, Mr. Wells, for your work here and on your podcast, and congratulations. Two years in and at least three more to go - lucky us! You are a beacon of sanity and good sense. Getting from Alberta to Ottawa for a book launch is a little far; otherwise, I'd be there to wish you well. I will definitely pick up a copy when it reaches my local book seller.

Happy that you are committing for five years (at least). Valuable informed and interesting content, most appreciated.
Congratulations and thank you. Looking forward to reading (and listening to) you for at least another three years!
Congratulations! and Happy Anniversary! Cheers to the next years!
Congratulations Paul! a very busy, thorough update on your successful and now not-so-new venture.
