A potential merger between Canada’s two largest newspaper chains could mark the next step in the decimation of Canadian news that has seen dwindling jobs and widening coverage gaps, say those who study the industry.

The two publishers said the proposed deal is a bid to create greater scale so they can respond to the “existential threat” facing the media industry.
