The newspaper was established 30 October 1920 by Joseph-Hermann Fortier. In 1935, the paper was acquired by Jacob Nicol; 16 years later, in 1951, the paper changed ownership again, with Honoré Dansereau acquiring the paper.[5] Alongside several other French Canadian papers, Le Nouvelliste was bought in 1968 by Paul Desmarais.[5]
It was part of the Gesca media conglomerate, until it was sold to Groupe Capitales Medias in 2015.[5][6][7] It ceased its print edition in 2023, but continues as an online newspaper.[3]
