NMC asks community newspaper publishers to complete survey
 
 Earlier this summer, Canada Post offered lower rates to TC Transcontinental’s flyer-distribution Raddar products compared to community newspapers. In response, News Media Canada (NMC) is currently gathering information from community newspaper publishers to make the case that they should be offered that same lower rate. Complete the survey here: https://nmc-mic.ca/2026/09/03/community-newspaper-publisher-survey/
“We have met with staff in the Minister of Government Transformation, Public Works and Procurement’s office, as well as Canada Post, to make the case that news publishers should be offered the same rate as TC Transcontinental, which we hear is about 10¢ per household for Raddar,” said the organization. “As we continue our dialogue with Canada Post, it would be very helpful if community newspaper publishers completed the survey. The information will be shared – in aggregate – with Canada Post.
