According to a recent NADbank survey, ''The Province'' ''The Province'' has come under criticism recently due to its declining intellectual appeal and its unabashed sensationalism. Its focus on superficial topics such as fires, crimes, and smallscale scandals forms the basis of this criticism. History In 1923 , the Southam family bought ''The Province''. By 1945 the paper's printers went out on strike. ''The Province'' had been the best selling newspaper in Vancouver, ahead of the '' Vancouver Sun '' and the ''News Herald''. As a result of the six-week strike, it lost significant market share, at one point falling to third place. In 1957 , ''The Province'' and the ''Vancouver Sun'' were sold to Pacific Press Limited which was jointly owned by both newspaper companies. EXTERNAL LINK |
