    Exclamation Oh, Canada! Newspapers!

    EDIT: I'll be back to edit this (to add more) in a half hour or so. Something came up.

    Since the Wikipedia one is meh, I have constructed a comprehensive list of all of the major (and some minor) newspapers in the country of Canada, specifically from major cities and their surrounding areas (suburbs etc). You can use these newspapers to search for reports, articles, timelines and everything else related to crime in Canada that you may want to share in this forum. Since a lot of the members here are American, it will be easier to just check these sites listed for information instead of hoping for something Canadian-related to appear in American newspapers/sites. I am working on an American list...it will just take a little longer since the US has ten times the population of Canada, and the cities are larger as well.

    Legend:

    AB = Alberta
    BC = British Columbia
    MB = Manitoba
    NB = New Brunswick
    NL = Newfoundland and Labrador
    NS = Nova Scotia
    ON = Ontario
    QC = Québec
    SK = Saskatchewan

    The rest of the provinces do not have a significant population warranting coverage. Since the political element is irrelevant I have listed them in cities, not provinces, but the provinces are noted:

    List of Canadian Newspapers

    Calgary (AB)

    Calgary Herald
    Calgary Sun
    Metro Calgary

    Edmonton (AB)

    Edmonton Examiner
    Edmonton Journal
    Edmonton Sun
    Great West Newspapers, LP
    Lakeside Leader
    Metro Edmonton
    Western Wheel

    Fredericton (NB)

    The Daily Gleaner

    Halifax (NS)

    The Chronicle Herald
    Metro Halifax

    Kelowna (BC)

    Kelowna Daily Courier

    Lethbridge (AB)

    Lethbridge Herald
    Lethbridge Journal

    Medicine Hat (AB)

    Medicine Hat News

    Moncton (NB)

    Times and Transcript

    Ottawa (ON)

    Ottawa Citizen

    Prince George (AB)

    Prince George Citizen

    Red Deer (AB)

    Red Deer Advocate

    Toronto (ON)

    The Globe and Mail*
    Metro Toronto
    National Post
    Toronto Star
    Toronto Sun

    St. John's (NL)

    The Telegram

    Vancouver (BC)

    Metro Vancouver
    Vancouver Sun

    Victoria (BC)

    Time-Colonist

    Winnipeg (MB)

    Winnipeg Free Press
    Winnipeg Sun

    *Canada's national newspaper of record

    Since Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton and Winnipeg are Canada's largest cities, you will have a better chance of finding crime-related articles in their respective newpapers. Mostly all of the cities listed have 75 000+ residents.

    Thanks, B&T....but I get all of my information on current events from The Weekly World News.

    Yet know, my master, God omnipotent,
    Is mustering in his clouds on our behalf
    Armies of pestilence; and they shall strike
    Your children yet unborn and unbegot,
    That lift your vassal hands against my head
    And threat the glory of my precious crown.

    I generally get all of mine from The Onion; yet I have noticed a lot of people here use canada.com for their Canadian news source, which is cool...but it's very basic and has few articles (I know it's a parent site, but still).
