Terrace Standard

Terrace Standard is the information lifeblood for this growing northwestern BC city, the trusted voice of a disparate region where loggers, miners and fishermen rub elbows with teachers, doctors and businessmen.

Since it was founded in April 1988, The Terrace Standard has acted as a window into important changes in the area, and as a reflection of its citizens, their activities and ideas. Nowhere is that more apparent than in the paper's lively opinion pages, where local letter writers and columnists don't hesitate to comment on issues affecting the area.

The Standard is an active supporter of its community, including organizations such as the Terrace and District Chamber of Commerce, and events like Riverboat Days, the Skeena Valley Fall Fair, Canada Day and National Aboriginal Day.

The Terrace Standard also publishes a Friday free-distribution regional newspaper, The Northern Connector. A joint publication with sister papers in Kitimat & Prince Rupert, it has the widest geographic distribution of any newspaper in B.C., reaching homes from Stewart in the north to the Hazeltons in the east, west to Prince Rupert and Kitimat in the south.
