Time magazine is launching a Canadian edition this fall, marking the brand's expansion into what its leadership calls one of the world's most exciting markets right now.
The 103-year-old American publication is partnering with Toronto-based ArtsHouse Media Group—the company behind Billboard Canada and Rolling Stone Canada—to launch Time Canada. The venture will publish one print edition annually alongside quarterly digital covers, video content, social media coverage, and live events.
The Canadian office will start with six full-time and four part-time staff, according to ArtsHouse founder Mo Ghoneim. Coverage will span business, politics, culture, technology, climate, and more, blending original Canadian reporting with select content from Time's global newsroom.
Time CEO Jessica Sibley said the expansion reflects the brand's focus on leaders and ideas shaping the world. The company recently launched editions in France and Africa and now reaches more than 100 million people globally across its platforms.
Time Canada also plans to introduce local versions of signature franchises, including events and recognition programs. Ghoneim said he looks forward to "connecting Canadian stories and perspectives to audiences around the world."
Canadians have already been making appearances in Time's pages lately—Prime Minister Mark Carney was named to the magazine's 100 most influential people list in April, and Hamilton-born NBA star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander made this week's list of 100 most influential people in sports.
