I agree with you on the cross-reference between print and web. This is scheduled for the next phase. We first had to redesign the display and the information structure before we try anything with the paper guys. This is a very tough challenge to make print and web talk because, mainly, of human factors. Fagstein is right about the intro vid (even if I am the talking head!) but you know how it goes... we simply did not have the time to do more, so we decided to just be polite and do something to great readers. :) I invite you all to comment and share some ideas. This media could / should become more community built... Chrystian Guy Product Director, Economic Websites Medias Transcontinental Thanks Heri for the reference.

But it's still following all those Web 2.0 sites and their bad designs. It's still very difficult to figure out the logic of the layout and therefore difficult to figure out how to find what you're looking for. They label their advertisements as such, which is interesting. I also like the design of lesaffaires.tv, though <a href="http://www.lesaffaires.tv/video-676-Redecouvrez-LesAffairescom" rel="nofollow">their video introducing the new site</a> is once again just a talking head in front of a camera. You'd think a video about a site redesign would actually show us how it works. From a design perspective, I suppose it could be a lot worse.
