I'm guessing not.  I have noticed that the Linux magazines are very 
expensive.  I am speculating that part of the problem is that because 
just about everything in Linux is free, that there aren't a lot of soft 
ware manufacturers with advertising budgets.

It might also be that because Linux users are very software savvy, that 
the magazines think that a lot of users get their subscriptions paid for 
by employers.  The Expos in the mags are outrageously expensive, I think 
for that very reason.  Your employer winds up paying for the ticket.

A very good magazine was Tux, which was aimed more at users than the 
ones that you mentioned.  It was a free download, but they didn't survive.

I  can get your visa application ready to file in two weeks (except for 
required documents) for $699.  It will take you a lot longer to do it 
yourself and the applicant won't be a resident of Canada until you do. 
You might also make a dumb mistake!  (All services will be for free 
until I get my license!)
