Now (styled as NOW), also known as NOW Magazine is an online publication based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.[2] Through most of its existence, Now was a free alternative weekly newspaper. Physical publication of Now was suspended in August 2022, amid the bankruptcy of its former owner Media Central Corporation, although some new content was still published to its website.
In January 2023, it was announced that the publication will be acquired by journalist Brandon Gonez.[3]
