Scout is a locally-minded, cool and occasionally extremely awesome community-supported Vancouver website. The sale of inexpensive advertisements and memberships in the Scout Community helps to keep it running. To find the right fit with us, contact Michelle Sproule at michelle [at] scoutmagazine [dot ca] or Ryan Bazeley at ryan [at] scoutmagazine [dot ca].
