Company profile
researched Aug 2026Chroniclejournal.com is the website of The Chronicle-Journal, a daily newspaper based in Thunder Bay, Ontario that describes itself as "The Newspaper of the Northwest" and covers Northwestern Ontario. The site publishes local news, national and world news, local and national sports, local and national business, technology, opinion (columns, editorials, letters to the editor, polls), arts and entertainment coverage (local entertainment, art, music and theatre scenes, book and movie reviews, TV listings), life sections including health, travel and oddities, plus a community directory, features and magazines, obituaries, weather, classifieds, careers and tenders. Much of the non-local content is wire copy from The Canadian Press and The Associated Press, while local reporting includes work produced under the Local Journalism Initiative.
The operation combines a print product with a digital edition at digital.chroniclejournal.com, where dated issues are posted on a near-daily publishing schedule (Tuesday through Saturday in the issue list observed) and full-resolution pages are restricted to e-newspaper and home-delivery subscribers. The digital edition identifies The Chronicle-Journal as a division of Continental Newspapers Canada, with offices at 75 S. Cumberland Street, Thunder Bay, Ontario P7B 1A3. The website runs on the BLOX Content Management System from BLOX Digital and hosts a syndicated markets section (markets.chroniclejournal.com) carrying third-party financial content and stock quotes supplied by FinancialContent/CloudQuote.
Business model
The publisher distributes news through a printed newspaper, a website and a paginated digital replica edition. Access to full-resolution digital edition pages is limited to e-newspaper and home-delivery subscribers, and the site solicits advertising, classified and "Place Ad" bookings, event promotion, tenders and careers listings. Third-party syndicated market data and press-release content appear on a separate markets subdomain.
Reader revenue from home-delivery and e-newspaper subscriptions, together with advertising and classified/announcement placements offered through the site's Advertise, Place Ad, Classifieds, Careers and Tenders sections.
