Eligible projects include first-time special issues or sections for an existing magazine; a new magazine from an existing publisher; development or enhancement of a Web site with marketing components; re-launches; circulation projects; and advertising sales projects. Publishers must be Ontario-based, at least 75% Canadian-owned and controlled; and solvent. The deadline for applications is Oct. 4/04.
