“I always read Canvas if I buy the Weekend Herald. It’s kind of nice. I like having a big newspaper, but it’s nice to have something that’s a bit more convenient to read. Like it’s a bit different and it’s a different colour paper as well. If you’ve read something quite in depth or full on, like in the news bit, without (going) completely to a trashy magazine, it’s a good in-between.”
