24 Hours is one of the best FREE newspapers I ever read…read more Maybe I am more into Tabloids and Gossips?! Since aside from daily local news and all those ads and classified, there are good recipes and news of Hollywood stars. The printing and the colours are all good quality and quite eye pleasing! Their online version is nicely layout too... and you can read all the back dated versions in case if you forgot to pick up a copy on your way to work. It is distributed Monday to Friday only.

Tip: Sing Tao has a digital version of its newspaper. The printed version ceased in August 2022…read more I looked at this listing for Sing Tao Canada. It doesn't look right. Its physical location was never in Corktown. Ever. Sing Tao used to print its newspaper daily in traditional Chinese. It started in Canada in 1978 and was Hong Kong-owned back then. My parents bought a copy of Sing Tao whenever they were in Chinatown. I grew up learning Cantonese. Back then, it printed traditional Chinese from right to left. Over the years, things changed. The online version has conformed to western left-to-right placement of traditional Chinese characters. The newspaper ceased printing in August 2022. To get your news requires going online to Sing Tao's site. For many years, Sing Tao was located on Dundas Street West, on the south side, between Beverley and Huron streets. Its headquarters are now in Markham, on the northeast corner of Warden and 14th avenues. It's tucked away from the Markham intersection. I didn't know that it existed in Markham until I did a Google Maps search. I took grade 10 Cantonese in the summertime years ago. One of our field trips was to Sing Tao to learn about modern printing. Looking back, I'm so glad that I visited the Dundas Street West location before it shuttered for good. I got to see how the newspaper was printed. I saw metal characters aligned in a rectangular frame that made up a page. It was cool seeing the entire printing process. The man who was showing us everything was so patient. It's sad that the print version of this newspaper isn't available. My parents are not savvy with technology. They have since switched to a different Chinese print newspaper, but prefer watching Fairchild TV and getting the Cantonese version of news there. It's nice that Sing Tao endures. I'll need to drop by the headquarters and take a look at its exterior. It's in my neighbourhood. I might as well check it out. (85)

Sing Tao is one of the most successful and popular Chinese Language Newspaper in Canada…read more It has been around for ages... as long as I remember. Sing Tao as an ethnic newspaper published everyday with the most up to date news from National and Overseas (Hong Kong, China and Taiwan). I think most of the people, like myself and my family would go to the classified ad if you looking for a plumber, electrician, lawyer, accountant, car dealership.... all kind of services and business have their ads in Sing Tao. Talking about Classified Ad, Sing Tao has the most explicit escort ad I read on a main stream newspaper as they should all be classified as XXX.... The complimentary insert magazines is also the reason a lot of people are reading the newspaper, which are all nicely printed that has a different theme: cooking/food, gossip, home deco.... Sing Tao's web site is also really nicely layout and full with great information! More ads from local business, coupon from restaurants..... I always check if the restaurant I going has coupons before I dine! Since you never know!!!!
