Live by the paywall, die by the paywall.
BTW, I found it interesting that the English language newspaper option at the hotel I was in Montreal was the G&M rather than the Gazette.Comment

I don't think the G&M is printing a paper edition anymore, but you better check with WOM

I thought we were supposed to use "Unlimited".
They aren't putting out a newsprint edition any more; it's mostly glossy paper of the kind favoured by the Palm Beach Post.Comment

Nah, just on the outside of one or two sections. It looks sharp, though.Comment

Might you be printing a special edition for Ritz Carlton with a higher glossy percentage?Comment
-
Smoking poll - the 2012 election happy ending
Possibly. We print in five regions. The glossy content is a special purchase if one of the full page advertisers decides to pop for it.
Apparently during the big blackout of ought-3, we printed the Toronto edition in QC and flew them in.Comment

The Economist endorses Obama. It had a go at supporting Romney, with some of its usual "Ryan asks good questions about the size of government" but saw sense in the end.Comment

Gramsci, they just did a complete renovation that took four years plus; I didn't see MR's liver.Comment

They endorsed Obama last time, too, right? We worked with a real estate agent for a while around that election but eventually dropped her because she kept pushing lunatic right-wing politics. Anyway, she told me that she wasn't surprised The Economist endorsed Obama because it was "a socialist magazine," which I found rather amusing.Tubby Isaacs wrote: The Economist endorses Obama.

Ha, ha.
Just seen Romney talking about the crisis in "Europe". Quite a big chunk of Europe's much better off than America.Comment

That's standard from the Republicans. They induce panic among their followers with the specter of "European-style socialism," and I'm always amazed that anybody could be terrified by the Swedish lifestyle.Comment

The IMF projects that the USA will have bigger debt (as percentage of GDP) than all of the EU countries except Greece in 2016.
The IMF have though been over-optimistic about Europe before, but even so, it looks like it'll still be worse than everywhere except the the PIGS.Comment

The G&M has been pretty glossy for years. Maybe they've had to keep up with the N. Post. Most downtown hotels carry it in addition to La Presse (pretty decent french daily, to which I'm subscribed) and the Gazette, whose quality has significantly declined since it got bought up by Canwest a decade ago.
The Ritz renovation has been expectedly disappointing, they've "updated" the main restaurant into a generic upscale modern square beige eatery.Comment

To Tubby: And unfortunately, both Romney's and Obama's plans to address that take the Greek austerity approach.Comment

Back on topic, Bloomberg endorses Obama, citing his concerns about global warming.Comment
