24 hours is a chain of free daily newspapers published in Canada by Sun Media, a subsidiary of Quebecor Media. Five different English editions are published in Toronto, Vancouver, Ottawa, Calgary, and Edmonton, and a French edition is published in Montreal as 24 heures. The Montreal paper was originally called "Metropolitan" and had a large lowercase "m" as its logo, where the "24" is today. On November 14, 2006, 24 hours launched two new editions in the Ottawa Valley area -- an English edition published in Ottawa, and a French edition published in Gatineau. The Gatineau version stopped publishing on May 9, 2008. The Vancouver edition of 24 hours was a joint venture of Sun Media and the Jim Pattison Group; Pattison sold his share of the Vancouver edition in 2007. Most 24 hours are published 5 days a week (Monday to Friday) in a 460 mm × 282 mm compact format that is smaller than a tabloid (about 58% the size of a tabloid.) Because its target readers are commuters heading to work, it is not published on weekends or statutory holidays. Vancouver 24 hours, however, publishes in print 5 days a week (Monday to Friday) and provides a digital "Online Weekend Edition" which can be viewed
