Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Canada Press at free with in-app purchases against Edmonton Sun ePaper's subscription. Canada Press also leads on review sentiment (59% vs 33%) and ratings volume (55 vs 3). Edmonton Sun ePaper's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
