The Northern Advocate is our monthly, stand-alone print newspaper distributed across northern Saskatchewan and Manitoba. It’s named to hearken back to our roots as the Prince Albert Advocate in 1894 while staying true to the people and mission it intends to serve — telling stories that matter.
Our commitment to you is to produce original journalism highlighting stories important to northern Saskatchewan every month.
