CDN NATIONAL PAPERS

The National Post is published by CanWest Global Communications, and is the leading

national newspaper in Canada. Some considered it to be the first newspaper in the country, which

truly reflects the perspectives and opinions of the population from coast to coast. In addition, the

National Post has brilliantly incorporated the Financial Post as the premium business section in this

innovation publication. This said the National Post would be valuable addition to your microfilm

collection and a useful resource for national news.
