Newspapers in Canada - statistics & facts
Printed newspapers in Canada are slowly losing ground. Not unlike in other markets, the format is gradually being replaced by digital versions of longstanding print publications. Printed newspaper circulation revenue still accounts for most of the total but is dropping, with revenue of printed daily newspapers as well as specialized papers affected. At the same time, digital revenue is steadily climbing and increased almost threefold between 2016 and 2022, whereas print circulation declined by around 200 million Canadian dollars in the same period. Both print and digital newspapers, though, have long faced competition from other news outlets offering faster, cheaper, or more current information. So how and where are Canadians reading newspapers?
