The Woodbridge Co. Ltd. is not included in this table because it only owns one newspaper, the Globe and Mail (and only 85 per cent of it; BCE Inc. owns the other 15 per cent.) although it does also own the Thomson Reuters news service.
Likewise, many of the other independent dailies also publish weekly newspapers, but only chains with two or more dailies are listed in this table.
