A look at leading Rogers publications Flare, Maclean’s and Chatelaine

Sep 30, 2016 | 9:30 AM

TORONTO — Canada’s venerable fashion magazine Flare and the news weekly Maclean’s are the latest casualties of dwindling print revenues. Rogers Media says it’s ending print editions of its slick glossy Flare in the new year, and shifting its long-running newsmagazine to a monthly schedule.

Meanwhile, Canadian Business, MoneySense and Sportsnet Magazine will also leave store shelves in the new year while Chatelaine and Today’s Parent will see their editions halved.

Here’s a quick look at each title:

FLARE: This style bible has offered up a Canuck take on the world of fashion, beauty, relationships and culture since 1979. It currently publishes 10 issues annually and boasts a total circulation of 106,772. It will disappear entirely from newsstands in the new year. From then on, fashionistas will only have the website and app to get their style fix.

MACLEAN’S: Billed as Canada’s only current affairs magazine, this weekly mag has been fuelling news junkies since 1905 with its mix of features, analysis and investigative reports in the worlds of politics, business, global affairs and culture. Currently boasting a circulation of 225,963, it’s set to drop to a monthly edition but will maintain a weekly version online, in addition to its website and app.
