Hurry up and wait
Mastheadonline reports that Federal Finance Minister John McCallum is "still considering" an appeal by The Walrus of its turn-down for charitable status. Publisher Ken Alexander is keeping mum but says he's hoping for something next week. Reading between the lines of McCallum's spokesman, it would seem the government wouldn't actually change the antiquated, impenetrable charity law, but would treat magazine-based applications on a case-by-case basis.
We hope you noted mention in a comment to an earlier item that the Senior Designer of The Walrus, Brian Morgan, has jumped over to Maclean's, replacing Gary Hall who was terminated last week.

Hey DB,
Any luck finding out how The Walrus was able to get Paul Martin's minister to get involved? Especially interesting given that the premiere issue of the Walrus ripped on Martin heavily.
