About Canby Chronicle

You may already know us through the Canby Community Advantage Magazine, Canby’s trusted local advertising source since 2005. But along the way, we realized something was missing: a truly local newspaper focused on the stories, people, events, and issues happening right here in our community.

Introducing the Canby Chronicle Newspaper. Local news for local people.  We will publish the newspaper monthly and send it out to every address in Canby. IT will also be distributed in stores and stands around town with no subscription required.

About Active Media Publishing

In 2000, Matthew Nelson started Active Media with a simple idea: to help businesses in our community connect with their neighbors. Over the following 25 years, our impact has swelled to include more than 60 publications across 8 brands: Community Advantage Magazines, MOM Magazine, Lifestyle Magazines, Women in Business Magazine, The Mountain Times, Sandy Standard, Westside Newspaper, The Sherwood Sun, Postcard Masters, and Community Coloring.

​Just over 600,000 readers across the Portland Metro area and Southern Washington get Active Media content delivered to their mailboxes. Our brands are trusted by consumers living in towns and neighborhoods like Canby, Tigard, Lake Oswego, and Oregon City.

Our journey has been one of innovation and adaptation. Over the years, as marketing trends changed and digital platforms emerged, we didn’t just keep up—we embraced the shift. While our beautifully designed direct mail magazines remain a cornerstone of our services, we’ve expanded into the digital world. Now, we help businesses amplify their reach online with tools like social media campaigns and targeted digital ads, creating a comprehensive approach that works on every level.
