Library and Archives Canada (LAC) is pleased to announce the release of a new version of its Newspaper Collection website. The website provides an overview of LAC’s newspaper collection, including a list of newspapers available on microfilm, an index to the Canadian newspapers in its collection and a sampling of online Canadian news resources available from third-party websites.
Highlights of the new version include links to other websites offering free online digitized copies of newspapers, direct links to the AMICUS descriptions, and other improvements that make the website easier to navigate.

Does LAC have any plans to digitize historical Canadian newspapers and make them available online? Something along the lines of “Chronicling America” at the Library of Congress would be fantastic, especially since google ended its newspaper archive project. There’s a good discussion on the subject here: http://activehistory.ca/2014/02/historical-newspaper-digitization-problem/
