Where can I get Monocle Magazine in downtown Toronto?

There's an article that I want to read in the latest Monocle magazine. Where can I get it in Toronto? I haven't been able to find it in several local newsstands.

In Canada, it seems to be only available in Quebec -- distribution list.

Search Google for Presse Internationale Toronto. They're the best source in Toronto for magazines. There's one not showing on Google maps at Bloor and Lippincott as well.

bwonder2 is incorrect--the company on the distro list is the Canadian distributor who sells to all the mag stores in the country, not a retail outlet.

Also, try Type Books at Queen and Trinity.

It's at Type. I picked it up and browsed through it yesterday.

I just walked by an issue of Monocle in one of the local magazine shops in Montreal. If you can't find it any other way I will personally purchase the issue and mail it to you for the cover price and shipping (just the postage, I'll even throw in a plain brown wrapper free of charge).

It is at Chapters/Indigo in the burbs, so probably downtown too.

Its at Type, but its also in every single location of Indigo i've been to too. (Its definitely at bay/bloor Indigo.)

I found it at Chapters after meticulously going through all the other crappy magazines they have there. Thanks for all the offers/advice, though!

Every large newsstand has Monocle, as does the Northern District branch of the library.
