Encyclopedia > The Toronto Sun

The Toronto Sun is a large English language newspaper published in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is published as a tabloid and is renowned for its daily Sunshine Boy and Sunshine Girl features and its populist conservative editorial stance.


The Sun was first published on November 1, 1971, the Monday after the demise of the Toronto Telegram, a conservative broadsheet newspaper.


As of 2003, the Sun reportedly had a Monday through Saturday circulation of 200,000 papers and Sunday circulation of 400,000.


The Sun is owned by Sun Media, a subsidiary of Quebecor.


The Toronto Sun's format has given rise to sister Sun tabloids in major markets across Canada, namely the Edmonton Sun, the Calgary Sun and the Ottawa Sun. The Winnipeg Sun was originally launched by independent interests, only later coming under common ownership to the Toronto Sun and subsequently eliciting a redesign in Sun Media style.


The Vancouver Sun is not owned by Sun Media, and does not resemble Sun Media's papers in style or design.
