Well, since you asked... www.now.com is the URL for
a local newspaper that covers all the local entertainment and
culture scene - museums, concerts, clubs, theatre, movies,
literary readings (Toronto is filthy with them) pretty much
whatever turns your crank.
It also covers the local political scene, and has a few feature
articles. If you don't appreciate liberal politics as much as I do,
you'd best ignore those. On the other hand, if you do lean to the
Left (and remember, this is Canada - our Right has at times
seemed well to the Left of the Democrats in the US) the articles
are well written and thoughtful.
Anyway, if you're thinking of catching a show or checking out
some of our fine museums - I recommend the Royal Ontario
Museum and the Art Gallery of Ontario - Now Magazine is
a good place on the Web to go.
