Toronto Empire
''The Empire'' was a Canadian newspaper established in Toronto, Ontario, in 1887. Founded by John A. Macdonald, the Prime Minister of Canada and publishing rival of George Brown of '' The Globe'', it was the voice of the conservatives in the city. Macdonald and Brown had been political rivals in Canada West, although they had co-operated to achieve Canadian Confederation. The ''Empire'' was founded when the previous conservative paper in Toronto, '' The Toronto Mail'', declared independence of any political party in 1886. After Macdonald's death in 1891, the ''Empire'' merged with ''The Toronto Mail'' to form ''The Mail and Empire'' in 1895. This merged with Brown's ''Globe'' to form ''The Globe and Mail'' in 1936.
