Section 2 – Aid to Publishers Component

2.0 Aid to Publishers

The Aid to Publishers component is the cornerstone of the CPF. It is designed to provide Canadian publishers of paid or verified request circulation magazines and paid circulation non-daily newspapers with the financial assistance they need to produce and distribute high-quality Canadian content for Canadian readers.

The Aid to Publishers provides funding to eligible Canadian print magazines and non-daily newspapers using a formula based on the eligible copies of paid or verified request circulation of a periodical circulated during the reference year.

Recipients have flexibility in the use of funds for their approved periodicals. They can spend their funding on different activities related to the publication of printed magazines, printed non-daily newspapers and associated digital periodicals. These activities include creation, design, production, printing, marketing and distribution. Recipients are responsible for managing the funds they receive in the most effective manner possible.
