The Bridgewater Bulletin was a weekly community newspaper published on Nova Scotia’s South Shore by Lighthouse Publishing Ltd, one of the last family-owned newspapers in Canada. On May 3, 2011, the Bridgewater Bulletin and the Progress Enterprise merged to become a single paper, the Lunenburg County Progress Bulletin.[1] In November 2014, the newspaper rebranded its name, becoming the LighthouseNOW Progress Bulletin.[2] In 2015 it was purchased by Advocate Media, based in Pictou, Nova Scotia and in 2024 it changed hands again, with local Kevin McBain taking ownership. Late in 2024, the name was changed to the South Shore Bulletin. It can be found at www.southshorebulletin.ca.
