For Canadian news, the CP wires move with a 20 minute delay on the Canoe site. French news in Canada comes from La Presse Canadienne . Good, fast world news in French is also available directly through AFP . AP updates are available within minutes and you can even click and get a Java news ticker running on your desktop. Another big frustration of web surfers is finding yesterday's news.
Most newspapers have their current issue on the web.
In Canada, you can't. Well, that's not entirely true. The Ottawa Citizen also has a decent search function. But they are listed by dates, cannot be searched and feature texts only from their often incomplete web editions. Maybe Canadian papers will eventually catch up to their web counterparts south of the cyberspace border.
