Major addition of Canadian newspapers at newspapers.com

Announcing Nearly 35 Million Pages of Canadian Newspapers!

A blog post from newspapers.com announces the addition of millions of new pages of Canadian content — papers from Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Quebec,  Saskatchewan, and the Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut.

Many of the papers are available only with an extra cost Publishers Extra subscription, especially for many post-WW1 issues.

The papers added are not named. I think the Montreal Star is one of them.

Here’s the complete list of papers with more than 20-year runs

  2. While good news in many respects, a petty complaint is that St. Catharines Ontario is again misspelled. It is an all too common error. It is so easy to check.

  3. A shame they didn’t let us know which are the added papers – that can definitely be helpful…love that FMP is very clear each week about which have been updated and which have been added.
