Anyone know where I can buy british newspapers in Vancouver or Burnaby? I saw a man with The Sun newspaper today, made me really curious as to where he'd bought it from. Really wish I could have had a chance to ask him. Oh well, thanks in advance.

Entirely understandable and not sad at all.

However, buying one is a tad more expensive and "late" by the time you get it.

Can you not satisfy your hand desire with a Canadian paper? I do. I would think you'd have a reasonable selection available?

I've had some local newspapers (Burnaby) theres no news in them its just adverts. Like I said earlier I like the tabloids, I haven't found a Canadian equivalent.

There isn't a Canadian equivalent.

That's why we all moved here.

It is tourist season, always the chance they brought it with them! I used to bring a a few papers home every time I came back from the UK. Had to have something to do on a long flight.
