Newspapers Canada has partnered with PEI 2014 to launch Canada’s first-ever Front Pages Competition. This special nation-wide initiative will recognize the important role newspapers have played in documenting Canada’s history from 1864 to the present.
The competition is open to all current and historic daily and community newspapers from across the country and features eight unique categories:
- Canadian Politics
- Canadian Sports
- Canadian Heroes
- Canadian Arts/Culture/Entertainment
- Canadian Science & Technology
- Canada at War
- Canadian Communities
- Canada on the International Stage
The Front Pages Competition gives publications a unique opportunity to engage readers by enlisting them to participate in the entry selection process. Reach out to your community and get creative by setting up an online poll or survey, conducting in-person interviews or designing your own micro-contest to encourage reader suggestions.
