Canada’s largest newspaper to send jobs overseas, union says
The owner of the Toronto Star, Canada’s most widely circulated paper, plans to replace 100 unionized editors—one in three of its newsroom staff—with employees working on contract, probably outside the country, Bloomberg reports, citing a union leader.
As part of a major restructuring announced this week, the paper—facing lower readership and ad revenue—will offer voluntary buyouts to its 1,300 employees in all divisions, The Canadian Press says. The newspaper has already moved some circulation and ad-sale jobs to India and the U.S., Bloomberg adds.
