Toronto Gets Freebie Paper #4,235
There have been rumours coming outta Don Mills for a while. At CanWest’s York Mills hub, a chunk of second floor space has been painted hip, youthful colours, and installed with open-concept Ikea carboard. It all spells freebie commuter rag, this one to be given the unfortunate name of Dose. According to the Star, the paper will be available in five cities, and aims to target 18-34 year olds who like bite-size news, and sections with names like ‘people like us,’ and ‘live better.’ Sounds a bit scary, but we’ll reserve judgement until the paper comes out on April 4th. That’s if we can find it amidst the metastasizing newspaper boxes that dot our subway stop.
