Newspapers.com claims to be the largest online newspaper archive with 636 million+ pages of historical newspapers. Canada does not have a President (yet?) but is well represented in newspapers.com. Any time I'm researching a Canadian historical topic I now turn to the newspapers digitized there. An invaluable resource. They include:
Calgary Herald
Edmonton Journal
Montreal Gazette
Ottawa Citizen
Regina Leader Post
Saskatoon Star Pheonix
Vancouver Province
Vancouver Sun
Whitehorse Daily Star
Windsor Star
Those are just those with over one million pages, including more recent issues in the Publisher's Extra premium subscription available during this FREE access period. Not listed is the Ottawa Journal with a full run of 843,608 pages from 1885 to 1980, and it doesn't require a premium subscription.
