Dan Collen’s Biography
I'm best known for my early coverage of the anti-mask movement in Canada, which often intersects with white supremacy and conspiracy groups. In June 2020 I was writing my blog for tens of people. By September I was writing for ten thousand.
In November to December of 2020 I researched and reported on a large Canadian conspiracy in an exclusive for Vice News.
I got my start in news writing by doing extensive deep dives into new age subcultures from an outsider's perspective. I tell stories in a light but sarcastic tone.
Ryerson University and Algonquin College graduate: from Ottawa to Toronto and back.
