Three placements reaching readers and listeners across Saint-Laurent and the West Island — Dorval, Lachine and Pointe-Claire, along the Trans-Canada corridor.
01Newsletter Sponsor Note — $180 CAD
Our weekly newsletter goes to readers across Ville Saint-Laurent, Dorval, Lachine and Pointe-Claire, covering local council decisions, business openings and closings, and community events along the Trans-Canada corridor. A sponsor note sits inside that edition as a clearly labelled 50-word block, and it runs across two consecutive editions so the same readers see it twice.
This placement suits shops, cafés, galleries and community organizations that want to reach a local readership without committing to a longer campaign. We help with the wording if you want it, and the note is subject to the same approval step as every other placement: you see the final text before either edition goes out.
Typical scope is a single note per booking; advertisers who want more frequent presence usually move to the Corridor Partnership below, which bundles four notes with other placements.
- 50-word note, written or reviewed with your input
- Two consecutive weekly editions
- An open-and-click summary after the second edition
- One round of wording changes before either edition ships
$180 CAD
Request this placement02Podcast Mention Package — $495 CAD
Our weekly podcast covers the same ground as the newsletter in audio form — local news, small-business openings and West Island culture — and it is recorded by the same team, in-house, every week. This package places three host-read mentions mid-episode, spread across whichever weeks work for your timeline.
Mentions are written from a short briefing you give us: what you offer, where you're located along the corridor, and what you want listeners to know. We send you the script before recording, and nothing airs until you approve the wording.
Format is a straightforward host read of roughly 30 seconds, not a separate sponsored segment, so it sits naturally inside the episode rather than interrupting it.
- Three host-read mentions, mid-episode
- A short briefing call before scripting begins
- Script approval ahead of every recording
- Listen-count summary once all three have aired
- Spread across the weeks you choose, within a reasonable window
$495 CAD
Request this placement03Corridor Partnership — $1,050 CAD
The Corridor Partnership is our largest placement: six weeks of presence across everything we publish. Over that period you receive site placements on Pinecurrent, four newsletter notes, four podcast mentions, and one partner-labelled community story reported and written by our newsroom.
The community story is the piece that sets this apart from booking the smaller placements separately — it is a short, genuine piece about your organization's connection to Saint-Laurent or the West Island, labelled clearly as partner content and never presented as independent news coverage.
This is built for organizations — a business, a nonprofit, a local institution — that want a steady, recognizable presence with our readers and listeners over more than a single edition, rather than a one-off note.
- Six weeks of scheduled placements across site, newsletter and podcast
- Four newsletter notes and four podcast mentions
- One partner-labelled community story, reported and written by us
- Planning session at the start, creative support throughout
- A closing report covering all channels at the end of the six weeks
$1,050 CAD

05Who this is for
Local shops & cafés
Independent businesses in Ville Saint-Laurent or along the West Island who want to reach neighbours directly.
Community organizations
Nonprofits, clubs and associations announcing an event or a fundraiser to local readers.
Growing businesses
Companies along the Trans-Canada corridor who want a sustained presence rather than a single mention.
This is not the right fit for national campaigns without a West Island connection — our readers and listeners are specifically local.
06Pricing note
Each price above includes copy or script help, one approval round, and the closing summary or report for that placement — there is no separate production fee. A final quote is confirmed once we know the edition, episode dates or six-week window you want; the listed price does not change with the season or the size of your business.
