- The Alaska Highway News
One of the papers Black Press purchased was the Nanaimo Daily News, which was shut down in January. In March, the Glacier-owned Alaska Highway News, which covers the Peace River region in northeast in B.C., announced they were “returning to its roots” as a weekly newspaper at the end of the month.

Were we aware that the Province and Van Sun have removed their logos from the Harbour tower overlooking Coal Harbour? They were fixtures of that building for time immemorial.
Ya, it was only leased space. They moved to East Van.

It's been that way for some time. Was in Van in May and went up the lookout. Could easily see that the logos were not present on that building.
Interestingly I found out that Vancouver Harbour Control is located atop that same building, it was quite visible from the lookout.

The developer is marketing approximately 40,000 square feet of office space here (large banners have been hung on the outside of the structure). They are calling it the “Victoria Press Building.”

The real estate team leasing up the new project approached Victoria Buzz to see if they might be interested in moving across the street, and into the new building. That would be awkward if the TC was/is still there.

^Really? When the Colonist and Times were in the same building some called it the golden age of good-natured media rivalry.

Buzz has some pretty high profile local ad accounts (Victoria Royals, Clipper Vacations, Bay Centre, Twsassen Mills etc.) so I think it's a pretty extreme rivalry now in that department. There ain't much good-natured about the sales manager at the TC, I can tell you that.

As long as Buzz is fair about how much content they lift and share. TC always complains about competition but in the end they win: RIP Pennysaver, Victoria News etc.
Twsassen
Good effort.
