There with you then. Here with you now. Montreal Gazette (re)launches nostalgic and future-focused branding

TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Postmedia today announced the return of the historic “The Gazette” logo to the pages of the print newspaper and website of the Montreal Gazette. Also launching is the new tagline: ‘There with you then. Here with you now,’ reflecting the longevity, connection and commitment of The Gazette to the city and people of Montreal.

“We’re incredibly proud of the Montreal Gazette’s 245-year legacy of delivering quality, trusted journalism to English-speaking Montreal, and the return of ‘The Gazette’ branding reflects the importance we place on our critical role of informing the public and holding power accountable,” said Duncan Clark, Senior Vice President and Chief Content Officer, Postmedia.

“Although the journalism of today is different than in generations past – and even though we tell stories using digital tools that would never have been imaginable in the 18th century – our high standards and promise to seek the truth remain the same,” said Editor in Chief, Lenie Lucci. “Amid the frenetic changes shaking our city, and with many of our institutions under threat, I cannot think of a better time to bring back the Montreal Gazette's historic logo to the pages of the newspaper and our website.”

Subscribers, readers and advertisers will see The Gazette branding starting November 30 at montrealgazette.com and December 1, in print.
