Flattery or Piracy?

They say "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery", so I guess I should be flattered that the Toronto Star decided to "appropriate" the cover format (as well as a few interior design elements) of Global Brief, a magazine that I designed and have been art-directing for the past 6 years, for "Turning Points", a co-branded (with the New York Times) publication that was included in the Sunday January 18 edition of the Toronto Star.
