RushHour
RushHour was a chain of free daily newspapers published in the Canadian cities of Calgary and Edmonton by CanWest Global Communications.
The Ottawa edition was launched on November 13, 2006 as an online news update and entertainment guide but was discontinued on April 25, 2008.
RushHour publishes at 6am in Calgary and Edmonton. Canwest owns larger, paid newspapers in each of those cities, and RushHour tends to use content from them and from the CanWest News Service newswire.
The newspaper replaced an earlier free daily published by Canwest, Dose, now available online only.
RushHour's main competitors in Calgary and Edmonton where 24H (published by Sun Media), and the local version of Metro International.
The Ottawa and Calgary editions of RushHour closed in 2008.
"Without any publicity the Ottawa edition was closed down in April 2008, soon followed by both other editions. CanWest – faced with a huge debt problems – failed to mention anything about the closure RushHour in their press releases or in their annual report." [1]
