The books coverage sine wave enters another trough

The Toronto Star has cut its books section down to a single page. The books section was the only reason I ever looked at the Star. Sad. Can’t link to the Globe because it’s paywalled, can’t like to the Post because it’s nazi’d, can’t link to the Star now because there’s nothing there. Even Quill is mostly paywalled. There’s no winning when it comes to open coverage in Canada. I get the whole “we have to pay people money” thing, I just don’t see how cutting coverage makes that more possible. I guess I’m just lamenting the good old days. And I’ll keep linking to the Guardian for whatever Canadian news ends up there, I suppose.
