Page Two’s commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion 

Page Two believes the diversity of experiences, ideas, identities, and organizations in our community and the publishing industry makes us stronger.

We are dedicated to being a publisher that respects, champions, and amplifies the work of marginalized and underrepresented people. 

Page Two sits on the unceded, traditional lands of the xʷməθkwəy̓ əm (Musqueam), Skwxʷú7mesh (Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. We are committed to the decolonization of our publishing practices and to reconciliation with all Indigenous Peoples in Canada. 

We understand that being a truly diverse, equitable, and inclusive company requires constant learning and improvement, and are committed to this crucial, lifelong work.
