About this project

Wethenorth is an independent public record about a Canada-focused darknet marketplace — and a warning against the marketplaces themselves. It has no address to sell, nothing to promote, and no side to take except the reader's.

What this is

A small, single-purpose publication. It documents what the public record shows about We The North Market and the ecosystem around it — and it exists so that a search for this name lands, at least once, on a page that is not trying to monetise the visitor. It is written for whoever arrives with a question, whatever that question is.

What this is not

Why it is anonymous

The subject of this file attracts two kinds of attention: from the trade it documents, and from the clone economy that harvests everyone who comes near the name. A named author would become a target and a marketing asset in equal measure. Publishing anonymously is a safety measure — for the author, and for the file.

Because there is no named author to check, the method is the accountability: dated sources, labelled assessments, versioned changes, and a corrections channel that works. That is the trade this project makes, and it is explained in full on For researchers.

The rules this file will not break

We cannot use — and will delete — any message containing marketplace addresses, links or access instructions. Do not send them. This address does not sell, verify, or broker anything, and never will.

If one person who came looking for a marketplace leaves this file having read how these stories end, it has done its job.
