Globe and Mail newspaperThe Globe and Mail today confirmed in their newspaper the news that Vertical Scope is laying off 30 of their staff as disclosed on Stockhouse yesterday . No mention of this in The Toronto Star today ! I have an idea . How about disposing of the Vertical Scope investment , which is showing substantial negative organic growth and buying the Globe in Mail . If and when Post Media goes out of business , That would leave one Toronto newspaper available . I am a current subscriber , but if only one paper was available , I would be willing to pay more . Judging by the physical size of the Globe , It may be available at a very reasonable cost . It is far and away the best newspaper for Canadian Business news . My understanding is that both The Star and The Globe and Mail are printed in the same Transcontinental Printing owned facility currently in Brampton . As I said before , expect more write offs on the Vertical Scope investment on the next quarterly report . Hard to believe that just a short few years ago , Torstar received well over 400 million dollars ( over 5 dollars a share ) for Harlequin . Where is it now ?
