History
On April 2, 1889, J. N. McDonald began publishing a weekly newspaper entitled the Moose Jaw Times. In 1904, the paper changed from a weekly paper to a semi-weekly paper. After the discontinuation of the Times Morning Herald during the 1920s, the paper became the Moose Jaw Times Herald. The newspaper changed hands many times – shortly after its first publication it was sold to Hamilton Lang, in 1894 it was sold to Walter Scott, in 1945 it was sold to J. E Slaight and then to Roy Thomas, in 1995 it was sold to Hollinger Newspapers, then to CanWest in 2000, and finally in 2002 to the Transcontinental Media Group.
