Hello! Canada is a Canadian entertainment magazine. [1] Launched in 2006 by Rogers Media, [2] the magazine was licensed as a local edition of the Spanish ¡Hola! brand of entertainment magazines. Prior to its launch, the British edition Hello! was directly distributed in Canada; although this was discontinued when the Canadian edition was launched, the Canadian edition continued to run selected content from the British version. [3] The first issue featured a cover story on Margaret Trudeau, Justin Trudeau and Alexandre Trudeau. [4]
Its announcement influenced Torstar to offer a promotion for its competing magazine Weekly Scoop, temporarily dropping that magazine's cover price to just 25 cents the week after Hello! Canada's launch was announced. [5]
On March 20, 2019, Rogers announced a deal to sell the magazine to St. Joseph Communications. [6]
