Layoffs and buyouts are looming at the country’s biggest daily newspaper.
In a memo to The Toronto Star staff, publisher John Cruickshank said the paper will outsource print page production and most design work.
The paper also plans to reduce staffing levels in parts of the newsroom and advertising division however an exact number hasn’t been announced.
Cruickshank said no large metropolitan news organization in North America has been spared the intense revenue pressures that The Star faces.
He said voluntary buyout packages will be offered.

That’s OK. The Star is a left leaning propaganda machine worthy of lining litter boxes across this great nation.
It beats the Sun or the National Post any day. Right wing garbage both of them.
Most of the local papers are already outsourced to India for doing the bulk of the work making up the ads, all you have locally are the sales people and the printers. Most of the Metroland products are outsourced now. Funny when they come asking for us to advertise in a local paper that does not support the local work force.
For crying out loud, just let go; get over it. Cutting hundreds of trees a day to cater to leftists is inefficient and wasteful way of disseminating news.
so our newspapers will come from china?
