MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(MARKET WIRE)--Oct 2, 2008 -- PetitMonde.com, the most popular family-oriented website in Quebec, is celebrating its 10-year anniversary with a new logo and a full calendar of activities to usher in the fall season.

PetitMonde.com joined the Canoe.ca Family portal last year and is jam-packed with information on children's educational and health needs, family life, advice, special columns, services for parents and games for young children. Since its inauguration, the site has earned a reputation for quality and received numerous awards, a list of which can be consulted in French at: Petitmonde.com/apropos/mentions. "Over the past 10 years, PetitMonde.com has built a solid reputation among parents and child specialists," said Marie-Claude Massie, General Manager of Portals at Canoe.ca. "This partnership offers added value to advertisers looking to tap into this market by offering them greater visibility and effective communication with their target audience."

"We are very pleased to be celebrating this landmark anniversary and offering our users a wide range of special activities at fantastic prices," added Marie-Claude Massie. The 10-year anniversary celebrations kicked off on August 30, 2008 with a large social gathering for families at the Pointe-Calumet Beach Club. The event was a major success, attracting over 4,000 people. Photos and videos of the beach party are available online at Petitmonde.com/10ans/photos.
