With a paid, weekly circulation of approximately 3,800 copies per issue, The Coaldale Sunny South Newspaper covers the towns of Coaldale and Picture Butte and the entire County of Lethbridge. These communities are located in the heart of Southern Alberta, Canada and are ideally situated between three metropolitan communities: Lethbridge, Medicine Hat and Calgary. Rail lines, quality highways and an efficient airport nearby connect these communities to Canada’s east and west coast. The area’s major economic base is diversified farming, intensive livestock feeding operations and tourism.

The News strives to present an accurate and interesting reflection of community affairs and a forum for public opinion. Market surveys have shown high readership levels as local residents tend to take an avid interest in the affairs of their community.
