History

The newspaper was created by Désiré d'Eon in 1937 in response to the lack of opportunities to read in the French language in southwestern Nova Scotia.[2]

Nova Scotia Archives and Records Management have recently digitized 3419 issues of the newspaper, comprising 68,352 pages, covering 1937 to 2002. This is considered an important historical resource for Nova Scotia's francophone community.[3]
