New GLBT magazine, Gaze, to be launched in Atlantic Canada

Gaze, a new glossy magazine serving Atlantic Canada's gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community will be launched in print and online on July 12 as gay pride celebrations begin in the region. According to a posting on J-source, publisher-editor John Williams says he hopes the free, ad-supported controlled circulation publication will aim to promote tolerance and understanding while embracing the diversity of the GLBT community. It will be based in Halifax. 

"Williams says his new publication aims to be fun and informative, without being preachy [says a press release].

"Gaze's first issue will be 32 pages in length and include among its regular offerings news stories; fashion and photography layouts; book, movie and restaurant reviews; questionnaires completed by successful members of the GLBT community; in-depth features on GLBT issues and much more.
