Our Story

The Sarnia Journal is a fiercely local community newspaper delivered each week to 30,000 homes and apartments in Sarnia, Bright’s Grove, Point Edward and Corunna. We are a completely independent and unaffiliated newspaper producing stories that our friends and neighbours want to read. And, as a full-colour publication, we provide advertisers with cost-effective print and online options. All of us live in the Sarnia area and everything we do – writing, photography, layout, sales, graphics, accounting (excluding printing) – is done right here. The Journal has continued to expand in size and staffing since its launch in March of 2014, and last year added a special monthly edition delivered to more than 10,000 additional households in Lambton County.
