Season Two was launched in mid-September 2009.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" title=\"Spacing Magazine\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3143\/3040623091_1a7e677b70_m.jpg\" alt=\"Spacing Magazine\" width=\"240\" height=\"186\" \/>The magazine, which first appeared in late 2003, comes out three times a year. Spacing also publishes two daily blogs in <a href=\"http:\/\/spacing.ca\/toronto\">Toronto<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/spacing.ca\/montreal\">Montreal<\/a>, as well as an elections blog called <a href=\"http:\/\/spacing.ca\/votes\">Spacing Votes<\/a> (Toronto 2006, Ontario 2007) whenever the writ is dropped. Spacing is also known for creating one of Toronto&#8217;s most wide-spread fashion crazes when it introduced a series of one-inch <a href=\"http:\/\/spacing.ca\/buttons.htm\">buttons<\/a> that replicate every Toronto subway station&#8217;s platform design and colour scheme.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" title=\"Toronto subway buttons\" src=\"http:\/\/spacing.ca\/images\/buttons-main-promo.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"213\" height=\"204\" \/>You can buy <a href=\"http:\/\/spacing.ca\/buttons.htm\">buttons<\/a> or a subscription to the magazine in the <a href=\"http:\/\/spacing.ca\/buy\/\">Spacing Store<\/a>.

He is currently a news anchor with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbc.ca\/radionews\/\">CBC National Radio News<\/a>. From 2002-2008 he was CBC Radio&#8217;s City Hall reporter in Toronto.

He loves modernist architecture. And when he goes on vacation, it is almost invariably to a city.<\/p>\n<p><strong>EMAIL<\/strong>: <a href=\"mailto:dml@spacing.ca\">dml@spacing.ca<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"grey line 1 pixel\" src=\"http:\/\/spacingmedia.com\/uploads\/radio\/images\/line-grey-1pixel-600wide.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Mieke Anderson, producer<\/h3>\n<p>Mieke loves the intimacy of sound, dividing her time between CBC Radio and Spacing.
