Outlook: Canada's Progressive Jewish Magazine is an independent, secular Jewish periodical published six times a year and based in Vancouver, British Columbia.[1] Founded in 1962,[1] as Canadian Jewish Outlook, an English supplement to the Yiddish newspaper The Vochenblatt, the publication has a "socialist-humanist" perspective; it receives support from the United Jewish Peoples Order though it is not formally affiliated with it. Outlook is the only Canadian publication devoted to yiddishkeit, Jewish ethical humanism and Israeli-Palestinian peace and justice issues.

The magazine adopted its current name in 1986. In 1988 The Canadian Jewish Outlook Anthology, a collection of articles, editorials and reviews carried in the magazine during its first twenty-five years was published with Henry Rosenthal and Cathy Berson as editors.[2]

The magazine is currently edited in Vancouver by Carl Rosenberg and Sylvia Friedman.
