National Post

National Post is a Canada newspaper covering National News.

Based in Toronto, the National Post is a Canadian national newspaper (along with the Globe & Mail) published Monday through Saturday. It was founded in 1998 by media magnate Conrad Black, to provide a voice for Canadian conservatives. The National Post was patterned on the Financial Post, an established financial newspaper which Black purchased from Sun Media in 1997. Financial Post was retained as the name of the new paper's business section.

Conrad Black sold his Canadian media holdings, including the National Post and the Southam newspaper chain, to CanWest Global Communications Corp in 2000.

This newspaper is owned by CanWest Global Communications Corp.

The web site is presented in the English language.

Canwest Global Communications "Saves" National Post

Bloomberg.com reported on October 30, 2009:

Canwest, the insolvent Canadian media company, won a judge’s approval to move the assets of the National Post to its solvent newspaper division, allowing the national newspaper to keep operating.

The Post, which hasn’t made a profit since its inception in 1998, would have been forced to close if the change hadn’t been approved because creditors wouldn’t let the parent company continue to fund it.

“There’s just no money to continue operating beyond today,” Canwest’s lawyer Lyndon Barnes told the judge. Moving the Post to the newspaper division is a “monumental step forward” in the restructuring plan, he said.

No one opposed the proposal to move the newspaper assets and it had the support of Canwest Media and Canwest Partnership creditors.

In late April 2009, CanWest Global Communications announced that the National Post will eliminate its Monday edition during the summer of 2009, to save money on ink, paper and distribution.
