What you get that is not a slideshow
The briefing is five headlines, a weather line, and one sentence on what council did. Morse kills anything that reads like a newsletter. Weekend print is the harbour file, the sport page, letters, and the crossword we still buy from a Dartmouth setter. We do not upsell a "newsroom call." If you want Morse on the phone, the desk number is +1 902 429 1100, weekday mornings.
Annual digital is $70 if you pay in October, which is when we remind you once and then stop. Print gift subscriptions need a stoop address by Wednesday for Saturday start. Student IDs: a photo of the current card is enough; we do not need a student number. Campus bags go to Dal, King\'s, SMU, MSVU and the NSCC waterfront campus. If your campus is not on that list, use digital and read the Saturday PDF.
Print routes cover the peninsula, Dartmouth (Alderney to Woodlawn), Bedford, and Sackville. Outside that, we mail. Mail is slower and we say so. Holiday double issues: Natal Day week and the last Saturday of December. No paper on Christmas Saturday if it falls that way; digital still goes out.
From subscribers
"The Saturday paper still has a jump. I like that more than I expected." — R. Chiasson, north end, March 2026. Mild complaint: "The stoop bag splits in a sou'easter. Use a heavier one." We did, in April. "You are slower than the radio on breaking. You are better the next morning." — M. K. Singh, Dartmouth, January 2026. "The student rate is why I still read a civic paper instead of scrolling Ottawa." — A. LeBlanc, King\'s, 2025.
