I gave up subscribing to the Edmonton Journal and Sun when they started being filled more and more with national columnists, many not from/in Alberta, and less and less location news/information content.
Just this week I happened to glance at a newspaper rack for the first time in years and was STUNNED to see both dailies physically smaller than a typical #CanadianTire weekly sales flyer. 
Link to the iconic #HouseHippo television #PSA teaching children about the need to research and factcheck even if something seems real.
