Has well-known tech publisher CMP ceased participating in the Canadian magazine market? As someone who has (or had) a subscription to Game Developer Magazine and often bought Dr. Dobb's Journal off the shelf, it's pretty scary how I haven't seen a new issue of either since December.

More troubling than the lack of a January 2008 issue of GDMag arriving at my home (which might have happened anyway) is the fact that I can't find anything with the CMP mark on it anywhere, not at bookstores or even the big magazine shops in Pickering and downtown Toronto. World's Biggest Bookstore, which has Chapters/Indigo's biggest magazine rack, doesn't carry any CMP titles (even though they used to – bought more than a few DDJs there in the past). In fact, staff at all the various stores have mentioned that they haven't seen issues of either magazine for months.

This leads me to believe that CMP might be spurning us Canadians. I'd love to contact someone in their organization about this, but the all-chrome no-content design of their main site, and lack of listed consumer contact points, make it very difficult to know who to reach. So if anyone from CMP sees and reads this, please tell me what's gone wrong!
