As a subscriber, that's a bad look.

With the whole buy Canadian thing is this not a US publication masquerading as a Canadian one?

I'm also a subscriber - and that was my initial reaction as well - but perhaps if they can get more Canadians (to whom that ad appeals) reading the Globe instead of Postmedia, we end up in a better place?

I still think it's a bad look if they just ran partisan ads supporting a specific party - I wonder how many stories they ran as promotional / paid content? Hopefully a blend of stories?

I'm with you on that. I think compared to some other major Canadian publications, G&M is definitely the paper to read.
