The Post Millennial

The Post Millennial is an English-language conservative news and opinion site founded in Montreal in 2017. The site covers Canadian and American news. In 2022, it was acquired by the American Human Events Media Group.

What you will find

The site publishes short news reports at a rapid pace, supplemented by opinion pieces. It covers transgender-related topics extensively, including gender-affirming care for minors, school policies, sports, prisons, and political decisions in Canada and the United States.

Why it is included on this list

In North America, The Post Millennial is a widely shared source on gender policy and regularly picks up local stories. Its reliability is disputed: media watchdogs point to one-sided story selection and insufficiently verified reports. The site is therefore mainly useful as a way to identify topics, alongside the original source. More context can be found under international developments and policy by country.

Founding and ownership

The Post Millennial was founded in August 2017 by Matthew Azrieli, Ali Taghva, and Madison Hofmeester. Azrieli is a grandson of real estate developer David Azrieli. Taghva served as editor-in-chief until mid-2020. In late 2019, Andy Ngo, who had previously worked at Quillette, joined as editor-at-large. The current editor-in-chief is Libby Emmons. In May 2022, Human Events Media Group acquired the site. In November 2025, The Post Millennial and Human Events came under the ownership of JTN Network, the parent company of the news site Just the News.

Criticism and controversies

In 2019, the Canadian media site Canadaland reported that the site was not transparent about its ties to the Conservative Party. That same year, the public broadcaster CBC found that many reports had been copied from other media outlets without original reporting. The Southern Poverty Law Center and Media Matters for America call the site far-right. In July 2020, the site incorrectly reported that protester Garrett Foster had shot first before being killed; the report was corrected. That same month, it published an opinion piece under the name of an author who turned out not to exist. In 2021, it published inaccurate reports about the U.S. women's national soccer team and a measure affecting unvaccinated students.

How to use and assess this source

The site works quickly and draws heavily on local media and social media. A report is therefore a starting point. Look up the original source, such as the school decision, court ruling, or statutory text, and check whether other media outlets confirm the report. For topics such as gender and sports, the facts are compiled on this site.
