A Jewish publication in Ottawa, Canada, is ceasing its print edition at the end of the year.
The Ottawa Jewish Bulletin, which is run by the Jewish Federation of Ottawa and has suspended its print issues since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, announced in late October that it will officially end the 83-year-old community newspaper due to the negative financial effects from the virus that, like many other newspapers, only intensified the decline in advertisers and subscribers.

Despite the publication shuttering its print edition, an online edition called the "Ottawa Jewish e-Bulletin" is slated to be published by the Federation and emailed to those who subscribe by email.
"The demise of the traditional print paper elicits powerful emotions, from nostalgia to wistfulness. We wish the outcome could be different," said Ottawa Jewish Bulletin in the announcement. "However, the Federation is optimistic about moving forward with a streamlined communications platform tailored for and by our community."
