... there are three certainties in life. death, taxes, and that your Montreal Gazette will not be at your door when you expect it to be.

the Gazette is quite possibly the only paper in the world whose distribution and printing got worse when they switched from rickety old presses to modern new presses. so, many mornings mean getting your paper quite late... if at all.

it's Montreal's only english-language daily, and brother do they know it. if they actually had any direct competition, they'd be dead in the water.

Well pretty soon you'll have a subscription to the Boston Globe and they are almost always on time!
