Welcome to the "Canard enchaîné" and thank you for subscribing to the only newspaper that
has a chain around its neck, but no strings attached. The "Canard", as you know, is a unique
phenomenon in the French and even the world's written press, because it is totally
independent.
Independent of advertising and, therefore, free of the pressures that go with it. It draws its
resources - since 1915 - from the exclusive product of its sales and the loyalty of its readers.
It is also independent of finance. It does not belong to any CAC40 tycoon but is entirely
owned by its employees. This singularity has enabled it to resist all takeovers and
destabilization attempts.
This financial independence is coupled with political independence. "Le Canard is neither left
nor right-wing, it is oppositional," summarized one of its former directors, who also
described it as an irreverent, humorous, and good-humored newspaper.
If "le Volatile", as de Gaulle had once called it, leans left, it is not affiliated to anyone, to any
political party or union, to any chapel. It is, therefore, free of all constraints. This is why it is
so strong in its attempt to inform you as closely as possible and to entertain you as well as
possible.
