I moved to Saskatoon two years ago from Toronto and honestly struggled to feel connected to the city. I kept feeling like there was a whole creative scene happening somewhere that I just couldn't find. The Bridge City Edit changed that. Within the first three issues I'd visited two new shops, followed a local artist whose work I'm now obsessed with, and actually started feeling like this city was mine. It sounds dramatic but it genuinely made Saskatoon feel smaller and warmer in the best way.

I didn't even know half these places existed and I've lived downtown for three years. The Edit is like having a friend who knows everything.

Finally a newsletter I actually open. Every issue I find something new to check out that week.

I own a small business on 20th and for a long time it felt like unless you had a big marketing budget nobody was going to find you. The Edit featured us and the response was unlike anything we'd seen from paid advertising — people came in mentioning the newsletter, people who actually cared about supporting local. There's a difference between customers who find you on Google and customers who find you because someone they trust told them you were worth knowing about. That's what this newsletter does.

What I love about the Edit is that it never feels like an ad. Reading something that's just honest and local and curated by a real person feels almost radical.

I've discovered my favourite coffee spot, my favourite record shop, and a local illustrator whose prints are now on my wall — all through this newsletter.
