The Tri-City News was a Canadian online community based in Port Coquitlam and published by Glacier Media, and serving the Tri-Cities region of British Columbia's Lower Mainland. It was established in 1985 as a weekly printed newspaper.

In the 2008 Better Newspapers Competition from the Canadian Community Newspapers Association, the Tri-City News took second place in "Best All-Round Newspaper" for large circulation newspapers, and won the "Best Front Page" category.[2]

In 2015, Black Press sold the News to Glacier Media.[3] The printed edition ceased publication August 10, 2023.[4] In February 2025, Glacier Media announced Tri-City News would close no later than April 21.[5][6]
