This magazine is the highest quality genre mag on earth. I've been reading it for close to a…read moredecade, and it never fails to astonish me. How they haven't managed to run out of content or in ways to discuss horror films, art, music, and culture is commendable. Since they've started, they've branched out to a great radio show/podcast, films, the Festival of Fear and Halloween parties, and now they sponsor film festivals and events. Their tentacles reach far and wide and horror lovers are all they better for it. May your decrepit, reanimated corpse shuffle along forever.

Like a lot of Canadian media The Walrus is like the cuter, almost-there, shucks-if-he-isn't-trying…read moreversion of something found in the states. It's like Diet Harper's or The Atlantic Lite. Drinkable to be sure, but there is something noticeably different about the taste. I'm being a jerk though. It's truly a well-written, informative and interesting magazine. The Walrus features essays, short fiction, poetry and traditional journalism by Canadian writers. I really enjoy The Walrus and was a subscriber until I couldn't keep up with the paper copies, so now I purchase individual issues. A subscription is very affordable (like $20-30 a year), which might explain why the mag is always under suspicion of going under. OK, let me temper that backhanded jibe with another compliment: The Walrus is Canada's magazine and a thorough contemporary document. Read it with pride. Obligatory Title Pun: Goo Goo Ga Joob. Menu Readability: Oh, so, readable. Need to mention: Gift subscriptions are often cheaper. WINK, WINK. What this place teaches me about myself: Kind of a passive-aggressive review. How Canadian.

Sorry, I just subscribed for a second year to The Walrus*. *The Walrus is the only magazine I…read moresubscribe to. I suppose that says something about how high my regard for them is. I kind of see it as my salute to Canadiana. Some people watch Hockey Night in Canada like a fierce religion, others drink double doubles. I read essays about The Edmonton Fringe Festival, follow the subculture of Newfie Mummers, catch up on my NWT politics and follow a multi-decade tale of a woman's many coast to coast road trips. It takes me an entire month to read it cover to cover, not because I don't want to devour it, I'm just forcing myself to savoUr it. See how I did that? A subtle nod to Canadian spelling. If you're keeping score, there's a few subtle Canadian nuances sprinkled throughout this short review. Bet you'll find them all, eh?

The Epoch Times is just amazing for a free "newspaper"!…read more Not only it is printed in 19 languages in 35 countries, they also have regional and ethnic specific versions! It is published weekly both online and in print! There are a lot of advertisements but I kind of expected from free publications but the articles can be quite informative too. Great read while waiting for my food when I am eating alone in a restaurant as it is always readily available at the places I visit!

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!!!!

Whenever I am at Massey Hall to take in a concert, I often walk up the street and pass by CityTV to…read morefetch my parked car. It's up the street, at the corner of Victoria Street and Dundas Street East. CityTV has moved around a handful of times. I remember as a kid, taking the 501 Queen streetcar and seeing the station name at 99 Queen Street East, which was its original location. It was home to some fun programming. I enjoyed coming home from school to take in Toronto Rocks, which was hosted by John Mahjor. He played videos and took requests, including birthday shout-out messages live on the air. Ah, memories! The station then moved to 299 Queen Street West. It ended up being the CHUM City Building. It was home to CityLine, MuchMusic, Speakers Corner, Electric Circus, and more. I remember the MuchMusic Video Awards held at the corner of Queen Street West and John Street for years. I was an audience member for the Marilyn Denis Show one time. I went to see James Blunt and had a fabulous time. Free tickets are always great. I can say that I set foot in this building. CHUM ended up selling its assets to its parent company, CTV. So, another location change happened. CityTV's current location is right in front of Yonge-Dundas Square, in the heart of downtown Toronto. CP24 (the around-the-clock news station), CityLine, Breakfast Television, and many other shows are broadcast from this building these days. I was able to look through the window last Friday and see the CityLine set. It was nice to check it out quietly as I headed to my car. Many Torontonians who have been around for a bit will remember Mark Dailey's voice, who was the voice of City TV. City TV. Everywhere. He was my neighbour when I was young. He lived in the apartment next to my family's. He was always nice. Sometimes, he'd leave his news scripts on the ledge in front of our communal mailboxes. Sadly, he passed away from cancer. CityTV was pretty cool back in the day. I liked everything from the CHUM countdowns to Fashion TV. I don't watch its programming all that much these days. I like Breakfast Television in the morning, especially with Meredith Shaw joining the crew recently. I tend to watch CP24 when I'm killing time, either at the doctor's office, or at work in the lunchroom... haha! It was cool to reminisce and reflect on how programming from this station has shaped me. It's cool that I moved back to the greater Toronto area and I'm still watching Breakfast Television! (467)

Tip: NOW Magazine is strictly digital these days…read more During my teenage years, I read NOW Magazine practically religiously. It was a printed alternative weekly newspaper. I loved checking out the movie and concert listings. It also let me know what was going on in the city. I remember reading an article about Madonna. The author slammed everything about her. I was a huge Madonna fan and wrote a letter responding to the article, sharing my side of the coin. I'm pretty sure that I wrote the letter by hand. I said that she was a savvy businesswoman and worked hard to make ends meet. My letter got published in the following week's newspaper. It was a happy moment for me. I remember saving the newspaper clipping. I need to see if I still have it. I just learned that NOW Magazine stopped printing physical publications in August 2022. It's strictly digital these days and continues to be free. You can subscribe to its newspaper. You get content about local events and more sent to your inbox. I don't know how often it gets sent. Maybe I should subscribe! NOW Magazine brings back a lot of fond memories. I used to pick up my free copy at the Van Houtte Cafe on the same block where my parents and I lived. That cafe has changed over the years. It was a Starbucks before it became Pizzaiolo. I do like the articles. It's nice to reconnect with newspapers that I used to read. I get to do it digitally these days, which saves a tree or more. (88)
