I assumed a holiday weekend, so no puzzle?
Edit - I see there is a puzzle in the National Post, but that page of the NP is behind a paywall.

Yes, I rely on the blog for that reason. When the blogger, Falcon, is on vacation or otherwise away, the puzzle can be delayed.

Enjoyed.

Just me or was the image file this week a bit low-res? Had to expand to fill the page and was a bit pixelated when done.
Nice mini-theme helped with some of the longer fill.

Yes, the image was tiny. It seemed to shrink big time when I went to print it.

I find I can get a pretty good image by printing the screen onto a blank doc, then cropping to the edge of the puzzle and enlarging it enough to use it.
