Great West Media Limited Partnership is a Canadian publisher of weekly newspapers in the province of Alberta.
The company is jointly owned by Glacier Media, a Vancouver-based publisher, and the local family business Jamison Newspapers, which operates Great West's properties.
The Jamisons had run the paper as a family business but prided themselves on professional journalism; the Gazette staff produced a daily newspaper for the 1978 Commonwealth Games in Edmonton.
In 2005, Jamison Newspapers bought out its partner but sold a 50% stake in Great West to Glacier Media.
[4] Glacier continued to operate a competing award-winning weekly in St. Albert, the Saint City News, until 2010, when the paper was sold to Great West.
