The Province – 840,185 – English
The Province is a daily newspaper in British Columbia, published in tabloid format by Pacific Newspaper Group, a part of Postmedia Network, alongside the Vancouver Sun. They are the two main newspapers in British Columbia. Originally a large-sized newspaper, The Province switched to a smaller size. It is published every day except Saturdays, Mondays (since October 17, 2022), and selected holidays. The newspaper was first established as a weekly in Victoria in 1894 and later became Vancouver’s largest and newest important newspaper. In 1923, the Southam family acquired The Province, and in 1945, a strike caused it to lose market share. In 1957, it was sold to Pacific Press Limited, jointly owned by both newspaper companies. A strike in 1970 led to increased pay for employees and the creation of a trustee pension fund.
