MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - June 22, 2012) - It is with great regret that Sun Media Corporation is today compelled to announce the closure of the Montreal Mirror. The current edition of the free English-language cultural weekly will be its last.

The growing popularity of digital media and communications has irremediably changed the context in which free cultural weeklies operate, bringing about economic challenges which have unfortunately compromised The Mirror's viability.

The closure will result in the layoff of seven employees and the transfer of two more into other parts of the corporation.

Sun Media Corporation sincerely wishes to thank these employees who contributed to making the Mirror a true Montreal cultural and journalistic institution.

Sun Media Corporation, a subsidiary of Quebecor Media Inc., is Canada's largest newspaper publisher, based on the circulation of paid and free newspapers, publishing over 15.1 million copies each week.

Sun Media Corporation regroups the activities of Osprey Media and [ Canoe.ca ] an integrated enterprise offering e-commerce, information and communication services that operates a network of Internet portals that attracts 10.5 million unique visitors per month in Canada, including 5.7 million in Québec.

Damn... I love my free newspapers, and the Mirror is a nice change from reading the Metro and 24H all the time. :P

Part of what made Montreal interesting died with the closing of the Mirror. Free cultural newspapers are always the first things I pick up when visiting a city.
