Toronto's 2014 budget cuts printing of two magazines
 
Toronto Mayor Rob Ford saw most of his proposed budget cuts rejected last week, but a motion to cease printing Our Toronto and City Insider magazines passed in a 29-16 vote.

Printing costs for the publications were projected to total $476,000 this year. According to a city spokesperson, City Insider will continue online. Our Toronto's future has not been decided but an online version is being considered. No jobs were affected.

City Insider was an internal staff publication produced three times per year. Our Toronto magazine, which launched in the fall of 2008, was also published three times annually and was delivered to all households in the city via Canada Post and an external firm.
