Last month, Lord Black of Crossharbour, as he is now known, sold his remaining local newspapers in Canada.This came shortly after he had offloaded his residual 50% stake in the National Post, the Canadian daily paper he founded only in 1998, to CanWest Global Communications. This Canadian media group had already picked up the other half last year, along with most of Lord Black's other local newspapers in the country, for $1.8 billion.
