A few days after Postmedia Network Canada Corp. announced cuts to editorial staff across Canada, Black Press closed the doors on the 141-year-old Nanaimo Daily News Friday.
“Black Press informed workers at the 141-year-old Nanaimo Daily News today that it will publish it’s last edition January 29,” Rob Munro, vice-president of Unifor 2000, the union representing unionized employees, said Friday in a media release.
Munro said Black Press also served 60 days notice, under Section 54 of the Labour Code, to Local 2000 officers.
