The Neepawa Press
In 2010, the Neepawa Press was purchased by Glacier Corporation out of Vancouver. That meant that after 114 years of local ownership, The Neepawa Press was managed by an out-of-town and out-of province company. In 2015, the Neepawa Press was purchased by the Neepawa Banner and its publishers, Ken and Christine Waddell, which brought the oldest business in Neepawa back into local ownership.
