Canada Perspective (canadaperspective.org), owned and operated by Northern Beacon Media Inc., uses cookies and similar technologies to improve your browsing experience, analyse site traffic, and deliver relevant content. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which categories we use, how you can manage your consent, and where to seek further information. For additional details about how we handle your personal data, please review our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies and how does Canada Perspective use them?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences, recognise you on return visits, and understand how you interact with our content. Canada Perspective uses cookies strictly for the purposes described here, never to track you across unrelated sites without your consent.
What categories of cookies do we use?
We group cookies into three categories: essential, functional and performance, and advertising and targeting. Essential cookies are necessary for the website to function properly, such as enabling secure login or remembering your cookie consent choice. Functional and performance cookies help us improve the site by collecting anonymous data on page visits, load times, and reader behaviour. Advertising and targeting cookies are used to serve relevant sponsored content and measure the effectiveness of our commercial partnerships, but only after you have given explicit consent.
How can you manage or withdraw consent for non-essential cookies?
When you first visit Canada Perspective, a cookie consent banner appears, allowing you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change your preferences at any time by clicking the “Cookie Settings” link in the footer of every page. Essential cookies cannot be disabled through this tool; they remain active to keep the site running. Withdrawing consent for other categories will not affect your access to editorial content, though some features (such as personalised adverts) may be limited.
What you can expect from us
We are committed to transparent data practices. All non-essential cookies are activated only with your informed consent, which we obtain via a clear, one-time prompt. Commercial relationships—including affiliate links and sponsored content—are clearly labelled and have no influence over our editorial conclusions, as outlined in our Advertising and Affiliate Disclosure. Our use of AI-assisted tools is governed by the AI Automation Policy, and every piece of content is reviewed by a human editor before publication.
Do we use third-party cookies from partners or advertisers?
Yes, we work with trusted third-party services for analytics (e.g., audience measurement) and for delivering relevant sponsored content. These partners may place their own cookies on your device, but only after you have consented to the relevant category. You can disable such cookies via our Cookie Settings tool. For a detailed list of the third-party services we use, please see our Ownership and Funding page.
How long do cookies remain on your device?
Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for a set period—typically up to 12 months for analytics and up to 30 days for advertising—after which they expire or are automatically removed. You may also delete cookies manually through your browser settings at any time.
