200+ Book Publishers in Canada

We’ve compiled a list of book publishers in Canada to help you find a home for your manuscript (or perhaps your next favourite #canlit read). The #canlit publishing landscape is vast and vibrant!

This list is thorough, but probably not complete. To be eligible for this list, the publisher must be a traditional Canadian publisher, not a hybrid publisher or a self-publishing service. Imprints designed to publish a limited list of individuals are also not eligible. We left off the “Big Four” since they’re easy enough to find. We do NOT want to list any predatory publishers, or ones who publish hate speech. If you see one on this list that you think doesn’t belong, or if you know of a book publisher we missed, reach out to us at info@writingcommunity.ca.

CA in place of the province code means the publisher has offices in multiple provinces, or the exact location of the publisher within Canada is unclear.

NOTE: A publisher’s presence here should not be taken as an endorsement or an invitation to submit. Please do your research. If you do submit, make sure you follow each publisher’s submission instructions to the letter.
