The McGill Tribune is an independent campus newspaper published by the Tribune Publication Society in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The Tribune has been entirely student-run since its foundation in 1981, and has a good reputation for unbiased and trustworthy reporting. The Tribune covers a variety of different subjects, including but not limited to news, opinion, student life & features, arts & entertainment, science & technology, and sports. It has a print circulation of 5,000 between McGill's downtown and Macdonald campuses. It publishes once a week on Tuesdays in print, with additional daily content online.
In March 2010, following a student referendum, the Tribune severed its ties with the Students' Society of McGill University (SSMU), which had previously published the newspaper.[1] The newspaper is now published by the Tribune Publication Society - a non-profit, independent students' society.[2]
In April 2017, it published "It doesn't matter because it didn't happen on campus", an investigative news story by Shrinkhala Dawadi (former news editor and managing editor) and Julia Dick (then editor-in-chief). This story was picked up by the CBC, the Globe & Mail, and the Montreal Gazette.
