4 April 2011, TORONTO
It isn’t often that publications come back from the dead.
In its former incarnation, Toronto Standard was a short-lived paper published from 1848 to 1850. Fiercely conservative and loyal to the monarchy above all, many of its editorials read more like manifestos.
It has found new life in a vastly different format. Launching April 7, 2011, the new daily Toronto Standard has little in common with its namesake — save for perhaps, the old-timey feel elicited by employing design elements common to newsprint over a century ago. But this is no longer a fixed-type press affair.
