Allowing an american hedge fund to take over most Canadian newspapers was a huge mistake.

    Replying to my own question:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quebecor

    It’s owned by Quebecor Inc, a fully Canadian conglomerate traded on the TSX.

    So if you aren’t sure about the trustworthiness of an independent paper, there’s at least one fully Canadian media conglomerate besides CBC.

      Well the Thomson Family is Canadian. They’re billionaires (so maybe not all that trustworthy) but they’re Canadian. So that would Globe & Mail and Thomson-Reuters (though that would be international, not Canadian).
