About us

Launched in May of 2022, New West Anchor is under the umbrella of Overstory Media Group (OMG). The word 'Overstory' refers to the layer of forest vegetation and foliage, often a canopy of trees: we consider ourselves a creative ecosystem, namely, we journalists can't do what we do without our neighbours and community.

Our sister publications include The Georgia Straight, Burnaby Beacon, Vancouver Tech Journal, The Coast in Halifax, and Capital Daily in Victoria—just to name a few.

We recognize and respect that New Westminster is on the unceded and unsurrendered land of the Halkomelem speaking peoples. We acknowledge that colonialism has made invisible their histories and connections to the land.
