TORONTO, Ont. – The Metro daily newspaper is changing its look as it celebrates its 10th anniversary.
The free publication, which is widely available on street corners and in subway stations, is now using a more sleek and sophisticated design, which captures the spirit of both a magazine and a newspaper.
Charlotte Empey, Metro’s editor-in-chief, is excited about the changes.
She told 680News that the revamped paper has “lots of new columns, lots of new columnists that are reflective of our readers’ voices.”
“The reader will also find lots of opportunities to engage with the newspaper. We want to complete that conversation – to put information out, and invite the reader to contribute to that conversation and come back to us,” she added.
Metro staff handed out the newly designed paper on Tuesday in high volume areas, such as Yonge and Bloor, and Yonge and Dundas.
