Reporting for the Rational Majority

The Sanity Project was created for anyone who still believes that being reasonable shouldn’t be radical.

In a world where outrage drives clicks and algorithms reward division, we’re here to make space for something that’s been missing from the conversation — perspective.
We stand for facts over fear, curiosity over conspiracy, and compassion over contempt. Because progress doesn’t come from building higher walls — it comes from building a bigger table and pulling up more chairs.

Each edition of The Sanity Project is a small act of rebellion against noise. We dig into the stories behind the headlines, question lazy narratives, and celebrate policies or ideas that actually make life better for people — not just for talking points.

Our Mission

To bring reason, empathy, and evidence back into public conversation.
To challenge misinformation without losing our humanity.
To remind readers that common sense and kindness are not opposites.

We’re not left or right — we’re forward.
We’re not anti-anyone — we’re pro-sanity.

What You’ll Find Here

🧭 The Sanity Report – Weekly essays unpacking the week’s biggest story with clarity and calm.
🔍 Fact Checks & Follies – Quick takes on misinformation, media spin, and viral absurdities.
📈 The Sanity Index – A monthly roundup of what made sense (and what didn’t).
💬 The Rational Minute – Short, sharp bursts of commentary for busy, thinking adults.

Sometimes serious, sometimes wry, always honest.

Who’s Behind It

I’m Bo Kauffman, publisher of Ashwood Publishing and creator of Smoke Signals and Discover Canada in Style.
After two decades in real estate and a lifetime in public service, I’ve learned one thing: most people are good, thoughtful, and trying to make sense of a noisy world. The loudest voices aren’t the majority — and it’s time the rational majority had a voice again.

The Sanity Project is that voice.
