In 1993, Hill Times Publishing launched sister title Ottawa XPress, an alternative weekly newspaper, to serve Ottawa audiences.[5] The publication was sold to Communications Voir in 2001.

In 2004, the owners of The Hill Times also launched Embassy, a separate magazine which covered diplomatic affairs.[3] Publication of Embassy was discontinued in 2016, with its coverage incorporated into an expanded Hill Times.[6]
