The Woodbridge Co. Ltd. is not included in this table because it only owns one newspaper, the Globe and Mail although it does also own the Thomson Reuters news service. Power Corp. owns only one newspaper, but it is also a part-owner of Montreal Métro, as is Transcontinental, which also owns several weeklies.
Likewise, many of the other independent dailies also publish weekly newspapers, but only chains with two or more dailies are listed in this table.
