The Onion x Toronto [MEDIA]



The free satirical U.S. newspaper The Onion hit Toronto newsstands today, bringing along its wry humour and spin on current events. Partnering with The A.V Club Toronto, the weekly paper will have 50,000 copies at 600 locations across the city.

This is the first time The Onion is publishing outside the United States, and Steve Hannah, president and CEO of Onion, Inc., calls it the ideal fit. “It’s an obvious choice,” said Hannah in a telephone interview. “Toronto is a cosmopolitan, sophisticated, hip, cool town. It’s a music town. The film festival, we’ve been covering it for years.”

No you’ll have something cool to read while you’re riding our underfunded public transit system all over town.
