The pre-Postmedia takeover rule was: If it’s an ad that may look like news content, it had to be labelled as an ad. The Herald used wraparound ads (separate sheets of newsprint) before but I think this is a first where the historic Chronicle Herald nameplate has been attached to a full-page ad.

Postmedia acquires the Chronicle Herald and immediately turns the front page of the paper into an ad for the Alberta government.

The entire front page of the Chronicle Herald is an ad. The ad is a photo of a woman and two children in a grocery aisle. Beneath reads "Ottawa's Energy Production Cap Will Make Groceries More Expensive. The federal government's plan is misguided. Learn how it will impact all Canadians. Scrap the Cap.ca Alberta"
