Canadian Literary Periodicals

The button below takes you to a list of the literary periodicals in Canada, as recognized by the Canadian Magazine Awards (check out the rest of their News & Resources section too).

When you're looking for a journal to send your work, it's a good idea to begin by purchasing the latest issue, and reading the work they publish, or at least exploring their website, so you can get a sense of whether or not  your work is a good fit for their publication.

Be sure to read and adhere to their submission guidelines.

I live and write univited on the homelands of the lək̓ʷəŋən peoples (also known as the Songhees and Esquimalt Nations), and the W̱SÁNEĆ peoples (also known as the Tsartlip, Pauquachin, Tsawout, Tseycum and Malahat Nations). In their oral tradition, speaking carried weight, and their words and teachings have persevered for untold generations.
