 PROFILE
Gazing into Sara's crystal-blue eyes, feeling her sweet breath on his cheek, the handsome stranger whispered, "Torstar is a Canadian newspaper publisher and the world's #1 romance novel publisher." Torstar's flagship publication, "The Toronto Star," is Canada's largest daily newspaper. It also owns four other dailies and about 70 weeklies (through its Metroland unit) in Ontario. The company's Harlequin Enterprises subsidiary publishes romance fiction paperbacks. Through its Interactive Media division, Torstar operates Toronto Star Television (home shopping) as well as some 40 Web sites, including online book seller eHarlequin.com. The company is divesting its supplemental educational division.
