The Peninsula News Review has been the Saanich Peninsula's newspaper of choice since 1912. When the first issue hit the streets, on December 13, 1912, it was called the Sidney Review and served the residents scattered across the Peninsula.
The Review started as an eight-page tabloid, the and turned into a broadsheet by 1919. The Peninsula News Review is now owned by Black Press.
An area with its agricultural roots firmly ingrained in its communities -- Sidney, North Saanich and Central Saanich (which in turn includes Brentwood Bay, Saanichton and Keating), these are seaside communities with decidedly urban touches.
The News Review reflects the richness of its 70,000 residents, which include farming families, business people, four First Nations communities, and those who sail our seas for business and pleasure.
