Look, there was a chap from the US who went through in 2004 or such. He contacted every community he could search in Labrador and that part of Quebec and got them to send him their weekly newspapers. I have no idea how many still do newspapers, but it is worth a try.
In winter the temperatures will be quite low. Snow comes early and stays.

Over on the island of Newfoundland they are having as weird a winter as we are having across The Gulf. I have had an email from a Corner Brook friend today. 3 thaws in this month of January. 2 weeks around Xmas temperatures were about 10'C lower than usual.
I lived in Newfoundland from 1983 to 2008, 24.5 years on the west coast. I heard road reports re. coastal Labrador via CBC radio. Often and often after snow road clearing was a good day slower than our side the the Strait of Belle Isle.
Labrador population 2016, a little over 27,000. So, how does that compare with northern Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesota or North Dakota. & how much service do you get because of that larger population?
I can't recall the names of skiing places in Labrador, but Marble Mountain, Steady Book, is the largest one in Newfoundland. As I said one day there will be great skiing snow and the next day (this year) almost zero snow.
Yes, there is winter camping in Newfoundland, but near population centers. You have to be experienced with Canadian winters to try it.
