The Citoyen Borden Citizen has been serving military members since 1948
The Citoyen Borden Citizen reaches a unique audience at CFB Borden. As the sole newspaper in the community, we serve up to 20,000 military
students who train at CFB Borden each year as well as their family members and the local communities.
Many of these students and their families are new to the area; they are looking for services and businesses to meet their daily needs as they get to know our region. With the Citizen delivered to their door, they rely on us to help them settle into the community. As an advertiser in our paper, your business would be part of their first exposure to this area.
A large percentage of our readers fall in the 25-34 age group, with 60% making a higher-than-average income. There is 100% employment with military members, many of them with a good deal of disposable income. Annual salaries for military and civilian Department of National Defense employees working on the base total approximately $142 million.
The Citoyen Borden Citizen is considered a tool for the Base Commander to reach the troops, provide updated news and to educate surrounding townships about CFB Borden. Your advertising message will be viewed and read by a captive and allegiant audience.
The Citoyen Borden Citizen is a fantastic opportunity for advertisers who would like to connect to our Canadian Armed Forces community, and take
advantage of this unique market.
