The equipment that assembles the sections of the Times Colonist into a single newspaper failed just after midnight today, causing major delays in the delivery of the Times Colonist throughout its circulation area.
The breakdown stopped the production of the newspaper until a specialist arrived to restore the machinery.
The end result was another late newspaper.
The Times Colonist apologizes for the inconvenience. We are doing all that we can to resolve these issues and return to consistent delivery times.
