was a subscription to Maisonneuve magazine, a relatively new magazine out of Montreal that seems very promising. Now I have learned that Utne has nominated Maisonneuve as one of the best new titles of 2003 in the recent edition of its Indie Press Awards. Note that although I have been loosely associated with the Utne organization for about 8 years now, I had nothing whatsoever to do with the nomination!

I got myself one of those boxed kits a while back, which includes a subscription and all the back issues. It’s a great rag! I’ve also subscribed to Walrus, the less-hip-but-wants-to-be-more-important new rag out of Toronto. Very different, but also promising.
It was unusual to see two big mag launches last year. Generally speaking the mag industry is pretty tough here in Canadia, so it will be interesting to see which survives, and how!

Maisonneuve will grow and prosper, but only because of its fabulous designer.
Happy New Year, Mr Boyle & co.
