Canadian Newcomer magazine expands

Canadian Newcomer Magazine, which started out four years ago with a circulation of 10,000 copies in the Greater Toronto area, has bumped its distribution to 63,000 to cover all of Ontaqrio. According to a story in Media in Canada, new distribution points for the bimonthly include Ottawa, Kingston, Peterborough, Sudbury, Barrie and Thunder Bay. It has also updated its website CNmag.ca.

"With an estimated three readers per copy, we are now reaching and helping almost 200,000 newcomers with each issue," says Dale Sproule, CNMag's editor and publisher. "The vast majority of new immigrants to Ontario encounter Canadian Newcomer Magazine at some point during their settlement and integration process and discover that our 'how-to' approach helps them integrate more quickly and easily."

The free magazine is distributed at Toronto's Pearson Airport port of entry, in public libraries and through service providers such as settlement agencies, COSTI, Woodgreen and Job Skills; English as a Second Language (ESL) providers (including the Toronto District School Board); and employment programs like Skills for Change and ACCES Employment Services.
