Vue Weekly


Vue Weekly was an alternative weekly newspaper published in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, with issues released every Thursday. It covered topics on artists and events that are often ignored, marginalized, or misrepresented by the mainstream media, and aimed to bring balance to Edmonton's media mosaic.
Vue was founded in 1995 by former employees and owners of SEE Magazine, upset over losing control of SEE to creditors. Vue was partly owned by The Georgia Straight for a brief time, then was 100% independently owned by Ronald Garth for several years. Vue is now owned by Postvue Publishing Inc.
Vue filed a suit against the Canadian government for giving tax breaks, which were designed for Canadian-owned newspapers, to its rival See because See's parent company was ultimately owned by US-based Hollinger.
Vue is a member of the Association of Alternative Newsweeklies.
Vue Weekly ceased publishing at the end of November 2018, with Postvue Publishing stating that the demand for an alternative weekly in the Edmonton market had been declining for several years.
As of October 2019, the vueweekly.com website was no longer active.
