Chart was a monthly Canadian music magazine. The print edition officially ceased publication in January 2009, though the Web version, ChartAttack.com, will continue operation.[1]

Launched in 1991 as National Chart, the magazine was started by York University students Edward Skira and Nada Laskovski as a tipsheet and airplay chart for campus radio stations in Canada. The magazine soon grew to include interviews, CD reviews and other features. National Chart was considered an internal publication for the National Campus and Community Radio Association, Canada's association of campus radio stations, and was not available as a newsstand title.

When Skira and Laskovski graduated, they incorporated Chart as an independent magazine, and began to pursue national newsstand distribution. Although it is no longer an NCRA publication, many campus radio stations continue to file airplay reports for the magazine's Top 50 chart.

The magazine's primary focus was Canadian alternative rock and indie rock, although they profiled important international acts, and rap and pop music acts as well.

A monthly chart appeared in each issue. Weekly charts can be viewed on the magazine's website.
