Happy 20th Birthday @TheTyee ! 🎂 Hoping tonight's debate outcome is a vote for independent media to keep leaping forward.
Tonight we celebrate these heroes and milestones at our 20th birthday — with a party and a raucous debate about whether journalism is a dead fish or alive and leaping forward. 🎣. There are still a few tickets left and everyone is invited. See you there!.
