Toronto's monthly literary newspaper The Word is worth picking up. (most good bookstores have it) Two
of my fave poets have regular columns; Stuart Ross and Bill Kennedy.

I just finished Bill's January column. Worth reading. He is talking about he problems with the Can Lit scene.
He is always funny and this time has some interesting ideas. Interesting to me as it seems to relate to jazz
and the music industry etc.

Although, I am a bit confused as I always use Can Lit as an example of one of our thriving cultural industries.
hmmmm....time for more research i suppose.
