Le Journal de Montreal Newspaper Canada is a daily tabloid newspaper published in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, and is the largest-circulation French-language newspaper in North America. Established by Pierre Peladeau in 1964, it is owned by the Sun Media division of Quebecor Media. It is also Canada’s largest tabloid newspaper. Its head office is located on 4545 Frontenac Street in Montreal.
Le Journal de Montreal covers mostly local and provincial news, as well as sports, arts and justice. While it prints no editorials, it is famous for its sensationalism and populist Quebec-nationalist perspective. It is the only Montreal newspaper that prints on Sundays, ever since La Presse and The Gazette dropped the Sunday editions most recently.
Le Journal de Montreal is the newspaper with the highest circulation in Quebec. In 2004, it attained 320,658 Saturday-edition copies sold, exceeding its nearest competitor, La Presse, by 40,000 copies.
