What’s good for the goose is not always good for the gander.

The Hamilton Spectator newspaper will close its printing and mailroom operations on August 24. Printing work will be transferred to TC Transcontinental Printing and other external printers owned by, that champion of the underdog, the Toronto Star. The move is expected to save the Spectator between 4 and 6 million dollars annually. This means that 73 full time and 105 part-time workers will be laid off. To quote, Torstar executive, John Boynton, "The Spectator is a strong news brand with a great history and a great future'' - try telling that to the folks who will get laid off.

Yours for Socialism,
