The classified advertising section is the most read section of the paper. To help you get the greatest impact for your advertising dollar, the Quebec Community Newspapers Association (QCNA) has a Blanket Advertising Program. For one price, you can "blanket" the province or the country.
Whether you are buying or selling real estate, equipment, and services or looking for employees, QCNA can help you expand your reach at a fraction of the cost to place individual classified ads.
You can place your ad throughout English Quebec, French Quebec and/or any province in Canada.
Examples of classified ads:
| Announcements | Coming Events | Help Wanted |
| Antiques | Education | Machinery |
| Auctions | Employment Opportunities | Miscellaneous |
| Automotive | For Sale | Personals |
| Business Opportunities | Franchises | Real Estate |
| Career Training | Health | Vacation/Travel |
Please note that the Quebec Community Newspapers Association reserves the right to refuse advertising at its sole discretion. In addition, participating member newspapers retain the right to refuse any advertisement which does not meet their advertising standards.
We offer three bundles:
$6.00 each additional word over 25. Please add GST and/or PST.
Payment with order (Visa or Mastercard).
The prices listed are for a 25-word ad. Each word counts, no matter how small or how large. A phone number is one word, as is a web site or e-mail address. Punctuation marks do not count as words, nor does the & sign.
