Add article description

Le Nordir was a Canadian book publishing company, active from 1988 to 2012. Based primarily in Ottawa, Ontario, the company specialized in Franco-Ontarian literature, publishing primarily poetry, theatrical plays and non-fiction.[1]

The company was established in 1988 by Robert Yergeau, while he was employed at the Université de Hearst.[2] It moved to Ottawa a couple of years later, after Yergeau joined the faculty of the University of Ottawa.

It ceased publishing in 2012 after Yergeau's death.[3]

Writers published by the company included Daniel Poliquin, Andrée Christensen, Stefan Psenak and François Paré.
