Postmedia

Postmedia Network Inc. is a Canadian media company that owns a network of English-language newspapers and digital media properties across the country. Headquartered in Toronto, it operates a range of daily newspapers and numerous community papers, alongside online news sites and mobile applications.

Postmedia was formed in 2010 during the restructuring of Canwest Global Communications Corp., following Canwest's bankruptcy. A consortium of lenders and investors acquired many of Canwest's newspaper assets, creating Postmedia as the continuing publisher of several titles.

Its portfolio comprises national and regional newspapers in major markets across Canada, along with a wide range of community papers and digital properties. The company publishes content across multiple platforms, including print editions and digital editions for online readers.

Postmedia has pursued a digital-first strategy alongside its traditional print operations. It operates the online platforms for its papers and has developed mobile apps and digital subscription options to adapt to changing reader habits and advertising markets.

The company has implemented centralized production and cost-cutting measures, including reductions in newsroom staff and the consolidation of printing and editorial workflows, in response to broader declines in print advertising revenue. These changes have drawn criticism from some observers over their impact on local coverage and newsroom resources.

Overall, Postmedia remains a major player in the Canadian newspaper industry, with an emphasis on maintaining a national network of print titles complemented by expanding digital offerings.
