MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN CANADA

Dominated by major conglomerates like Postmedia, the print journalism sector north of the US border reflects a highly consolidated ownership structure. Leading the market are two national titles: The Globe and Mail, a centre-right broadsheet owned by Woodbridge, and the National Post, the conservative flagship of the Postmedia network. Operating alongside them is the Toronto Star, a progressive, mass-circulation broadsheet historically rooted in left-leaning advocacy. A distinct francophone press thrives in Quebec, led by the mass-market tabloid Le Journal de Montreal and the historically significant, now digital-only La Presse.
