The Delusioneers is a documentation practice. We build public-interest research packages on Canadian federal, provincial, and municipal decisions. We aim to provide clear, sourced, and structured documentation so they can move without us.

We exist because the evidence that would change policy decisions is already on the public record. It is sitting in procurement schedules, FIPPA exemption logs, contract appendices, and ministerial filings.

None of it is hidden. But it is boring, voluminous, and formatted to discourage reading by design.

Then there's the sheer volume. Announcement-stacking and distraction-cycling exhausts the public's capacity to track what is actually happening.

We do two kinds of work. The first is built for the citizen. It's a record that names what's happening, what the procedural levers are, and when the window closes. The second hands journalists, staffers, and researchers finished material: the document, the timeline, the comparison table, the primary sources.

Neither editorializes. The reader concludes. The work is intentionally plain. If it feels a little dry, it is probably close to something that matters.

We don't optimize for credit. The goal is that the record exists so someone else can pick it up, verify it, and use it.
