The locks are off

Globe and Mail Update

Go free. The Globe Insider subscription program has retired, and much of the content that required paid access has become free to all globeandmail.com visitors.

Every Globe columnist, daily horoscopes, crosswords, Sudoku puzzles and a suite of news-tracking tools are now free. Margaret Wente, Christie Blatchford, Jeffrey Simpson and the rest of The Globe's best-known columnists can join the fray and add their talented voices to the freewheeling conversations of the Internet era.

At the same time, a new paid product called Globe Plus has been launched. Globe Plus provides access to three tools:

  • e-Edition is an electronic version of the daily print edition of The Globe and Mail newspaper available in all 14 regional variations. It allows users to browse the newspaper as if they have it in their hands.
  • GlobeinvestorGOLD provides the best tools and news to maximize investments. It includes access to comprehensive financial databases, a portfolio tracker to measure return on investment, news alerts, filters to pinpoint stocks to purchase, and advice and insight from experts you trust.
  • Archive access to 100 articles per month from The Globe and Mail's archive dating back to January 1, 2000.

Please take some time to explore the new free features on the site. Our columnists can all be found on our Opinions hub , and links to the horoscope, crossword and Sudoku can all be found on our Home Page.
