This may not be new to you guys but it is to me. You can actually see many major Canadian Newspapers online via Google News. Unfortunately my local paper (The London Free Press) isn't there yet, but I did scan a 1968 issue of the Montreal Gazette and found a cool Beaumont ad
CLICK HERE and then go to page 59. There's a full page ad for the new 69 Beaumont. It's similar to using a microfiche at the library.
I'm off to check out  more car ads!

Yep,
The only way I can see how to do it is to resize the image to fit your screen (you can go full screen) and hit your Prnt Scrn button. Open "Paint" and paste it into that program. You can then save as a .jpg and woila!

You can also search for keywords like "Acadian" etc. That's how I found this:

Now not to rehash an old debate but do notice the headlines at the bottom of the ad:

"TODAY...on display at your Acadian, Pontiac, Buick dealer's"

We'll say no more..
