The Globe's Office in Toronto
The Globe and Mail is a nationally distributed Canadian newspaper,
based in Toronto and printed in six cities across the country. With a
weekly readership of approximately 1 million,[3] it is Canada's
largest-circulation national newspaper and second-largest daily
newspaper after the Toronto Star. The Globe and Mail is regarded by
some as Canada's "newspaper of record".[4][5][6][7]
History
The predecessor to The Globe and Mail was The Globe, founded in 1844
by Scottish immigrant George Brown, who would later become a Father of
Confederation. Brown's liberal politics led him to court the support
of the Clear Grits, precursor to the modern Liberal Party of Canada.
The Globe began in Toronto as a weekly party organ for Brown's Reform
Party, but seeing the economic gains that he could make in the
newspaper business, Brown soon targeted a wide audience of liberal
minded freeholders. He selected as the motto for the editorial page a
quotation from Junius, "The subject who is truly loyal to the Chief
Magistrate will neither advise nor submit to arbitrary measures." The
quotation is carried on the editorial page to this day.
By the 1850s, The Globe had become an independent and well-regarded
daily newspaper. It began distribution by railway to other cities in
Ontario shortly after Canadian Confederation. At the dawn of the
twentieth century, The Globe added photography, a women's section, and
the slogan "Canada's National Newspaper," which remains on its
front-page banner today. It began opening bureaus and offering
subscriptions across Canada.
On November 23, 1936, The Globe merged with The Mail and Empire,[8]
itself formed through the 1895 merger of two conservative newspapers,
The Toronto Mail and Toronto Empire. (The Empire, coincidentally, was
founded in 1887 by a rival of Brown's, Tory politician and then-Prime
Minister Sir John A. Macdonald.) Press reports at the time stated,
"the minnow swallowed the whale" because The Globe's circulation (at
78,000) was smaller than The Mail and Empire's (118,000).

Globe and Mail staff await news of the D-Day invasion. June 6, 1944.
The merger was arranged by George McCullagh, who fronted for mining
magnate William Henry Wright and became the first publisher of The
Globe and Mail. McCullagh committed suicide in 1952, and the newspaper
was sold to the Webster family of Montreal. As the paper lost ground
to The Toronto Star in the local Toronto market, it began to expand
its national circulation.
In 1965, the paper was bought by Winnipeg-based FP Publications,
controlled by Brig. Richard Malone, which owned a chain of local
Canadian newspapers. FP put a strong emphasis on the Report on
Business section that was launched in 1962, thereby building the
paper's reputation as the voice of Toronto's business community. FP
Publications and The Globe and Mail were sold in 1980 to The Thomson
Corporation, a company run by the family of Kenneth Thomson.
The Globe and Mail has always been a morning newspaper. Since the
1980s, it has been printed in separate editions in six Canadian
cities: Halifax, Montreal, Toronto (several editions), Winnipeg
(actually printed in Brandon, Manitoba), Calgary and Vancouver.
In 1995, the paper launched its Web site, globeandmail.com; on 9 June
2000, the Web site began covering breaking news with its own content
and journalists in addition to the content of the print newspaper.[9]
"Bell Globemedia" Merger (2001)
Since the launch of the National Post as another English-language
national paper in 1998, some industry analysts had proclaimed a
"national newspaper war" between The Globe and Mail and the National
Post. Partly as a response to this threat, in 2001, The Globe and Mail
was combined with broadcast assets held by Bell Canada to form the
joint venture Bell Globemedia.
In 2004, access to some features of globeandmail.com became restricted
to paid subscribers only. The subscription service was reduced a few
years later to include an e-edition of the newspaper, access to its
archives, as well as membership to a premium investment site.
On April 23, 2007, the paper introduced significant changes to its
print design and also introduced a new unified navigation system to
its websites.[10] The paper added a "lifestyle" section to the
Monday-Friday editions, entitled Globe Life, which has been described
as an attempt to attract readers from the rival Toronto Star.
Additionally, the paper followed other North American papers by
dropping detailed stock listings in print and by shrinking the printed
paper to a 12-inch width.
At the end of 2010, the Thomson family, through its holding company
Woodbridge, acquired direct control of The Globe and Mail with an
85-percent stake. BCE continued to hold 15 percent, and would
eventually own all of television broadcaster CTVglobemedia.[11][12]
Redesign and relaunch 2010
On October 1, 2010, The Globe and Mail unveiled redesigns to both its
paper and online formats, dubbed "the most significant redesign in The
Globe's history" by Editor-in-Chief John Stackhouse.[13] The paper
version has a bolder, more visual presentation that features 100%
full-colour pages, more graphics, slightly glossy paper stock (with
the use of state-of-the-art heat-set printing presses), and emphasis
on lifestyle and similar sections (an approached dubbed "Globe-lite"
by one media critic).[14] The Globe and Mail sees this redesign as a
step toward the future (promoted as such by a commercial featuring a
young girl on a bicycle),[15] as well as a step towards provoking
debate on national issues (the October 1 edition featured a rare front
page editorial above the The Globe and Mail banner).[13][16]
The paper has made changes to its format and layout, such as the
introduction of colour photographs, a separate tabloid book-review
section and the creation of the Review section on arts, entertainment
and culture. Although the paper is sold throughout Canada and has long
called itself "Canada's National Newspaper", The Globe and Mail also
serves as a Toronto metropolitan paper, publishing several special
sections in its Toronto edition that are not included in the national
edition. As a result, it is sometimes ridiculed for being too focused
on the Greater Toronto Area, part of a wider humorous portrayal of
Torontonians being blind to the greater concerns of the nation.
Critics[who?] sometimes refer to the paper as the Toronto Globe and
Mail or Toronto's National Newspaper. Recently, in an effort to gain
market share in Vancouver, The Globe and Mail began publishing a
distinct west-coast edition, edited independently in Vancouver,
containing a three-page section of British Columbia news,[citation
needed] and during the 2010 Winter Olympics, which were staged in
Vancouver, The Globe and Mail published a Sunday edition, making it
the first time that the paper has ever published on Sunday.[citation
needed]
In October 2012, The Globe and Mail relaunched its digital
subscription offering under the marketing brand "Globe Unlimited" to
include metered access for some of its online content.[17]
In 2014 the then-publisher Philip Crawley announced the recruitment to
Editor-in-Chief of David Walmsley, a former staffer returned from
afar, to be enacted 24 March.[18]
Report on Business
Report on Business commonly referred to as simply ROB, is the
financial section of the newspaper. It is the most lengthy compilation
of economic news in Canada, and is considered an integral part of the
newspaper. Standard Report on Business sections are typically fifteen
to twenty pages, and include the listings of major Canadian, US, and
international stocks, bonds, and currencies.
Every Saturday, a special Report on Business Weekend is released,
which includes features on corporate lifestyle and personal finance,
as well as extended coverage of business news. On the last Friday of
every month, the Report on Business Magazine is released, the largest
Canadian finance-oriented magazine.
Business News Network (formerly ROBtv) is a twenty-four-hour news and
business television station, founded by The Globe and Mail but
operated by CTV through both companies' relationship with
CTVglobemedia.

The Top 1000 is a list of Canada's one thousand largest public
companies ranked by profit released annually by the Report on Business
Magazine.[19] For 2012, the largest company was Toronto-Dominion Bank,
up from the second position.[20]
Controversies
On September 25, 2012 The Globe and Mail announced they had
disciplined high-profile staff columnist Margaret Wente after she
admitted to plagiarism.[21] The scandal emerged after University of
Ottawa professor and blogger, Carol Wainio, repeatedly raised
plagiarism accusations against Wente on her blog Media Culpa.[22]
On October 22, 2012 online Canadian magazine The Tyee published an
article criticizing the Globe's "Advertorial" policies and design. The
Tyee alleged that the Globe intentionally blurred the lines between
advertising and editorial content in order to offer premium and
effective ad space to high-paying advertisers. Tyee reporter Jonathan
Sas cited an 8-page spread in the October 2, 2012 print edition called
"The Future of the Oil Sands," to illustrate the difficulty in
distinguishing the spread from regular Globe content.
Political stance
Even before the Globe merged with the Mail and Empire, the paper was
widely considered the voice of the Upper Canada elite—that is, the Bay
Street financial community of Toronto and the intellectuals of
university and government institutions. The merger of the Liberal
Globe and the Tory Mail and Empire prefigured the paper's
characteristically Red Tory editorial stance, as its support
alternated between the two established national parties. In the past
century, the paper has consistently endorsed either the Liberal Party
or the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada in every federal
election. The paper had endorsed a third party on two occasions at the
provincial level: it endorsed the social-democratic New Democratic
Party in the 1991 Saskatchewan provincial election and British
Columbia provincial election. The New Democrats won both elections and
went on to form provincial governments.
While the paper was known as a generally conservative voice of the
business establishment in the postwar decades, historian David Hayes,
in a review of its positions, has noted that the Globe's editorials in
this period "took a benign view of hippies and homosexuals; championed
most aspects of the welfare state; opposed, after some deliberation,
the Vietnam War; and supported legalizing marijuana." It was a 1967
Globe and Mail editorial that coined the phrase "The State has no
place in the bedrooms of the nation," in defence of legalization of
homosexuality. The line was later picked up by future Prime Minister
Pierre Trudeau to become one of his most famous slogans.
Satirical nicknames for the paper include Mop and Pail or Grope and
Flail, both of which were coined by longtime Globe and Mail humour
columnist Richard J. Needham. The University of British Columbia's
student paper, The Ubyssey published a parody issue titled Glib and
Male. The spring 2008 issue of the Ryerson Review of Journalism
referenced the nickname "Old and Male" for the paper's employee base
and perceived target audience.
Under the editorship of William Thorsell in the 1980s and 1990s, the
paper strongly endorsed the free trade policies of Progressive
Conservative Prime Minister Brian Mulroney. The paper also became an
outspoken proponent of the Meech Lake Accord and the Charlottetown
Accord, with their editorial the day of the 1995 Quebec Referendum
mostly quoting a Mulroney speech in favour of the Accord.[23] During
this period, the paper continued to favour such socially liberal
policies as decriminalizing drugs (including cocaine, whose
legalization was advocated most recently in a 1995 editorial) and
expanding gay rights.
In the 1990s and early 2000s, the paper generally supported the
policies of Liberal Prime Ministers Jean Chrétien and Paul Martin. In
the 2006 federal election, the paper turned away from the Liberals to
Stephen Harper's Conservative Party of Canada. In the subsequent 2008
federal election[24] and 2011 federal election the paper's editorial
board again endorsed the Conservatives.[citation needed]
