... which is illegal in Ontario so surely the headline here is "ticket resellers refuse to adhere to provincial law"

This is creepy and might draw viewers as a gimmick for a few episodes... but game show hosts are iconic for a reason. It's one of the more reactive, human types of TV hosting. It's not just autocue reading!

I'm amending this since I just looked up the cost of cars in Canada: avg is $63k new $35k used 😭 Hey fellow Millenials, remember how we got told to stop buying avocados in order to buy a house? Well it looks like we're going to have to stop buying cars instead (let's do it and tank the industry).

So cool that my PM is a straight shooting rebel who isn't afraid to say the harsh truths which happen to be exactly what every fossil fuel CEO also says.

Why did they call them "Landscape Gardeners" when "Parkitecht" was right there

I switched to Tidal without a tonne of research, but they are cheaper than Spotify, pay more royalties, don't invest in AI weapons tech, and haven't killed off the North American narrative podcast industry. Here's another reason to switch.

"Why was the team they loved signing a guy with sexual assault allegations who could be in jail in just weeks?" I also love to watch the Maple Leafs play at Christie Pits. @nickhunebrown.bsky.social has summed up the fans' dilemma beautifully

Nick, summing up some of the feelings I've had about Puig and the Maple Leafs. He may not be in literal jail (yet), but it certainly sounds like playing an indie league in Canada feels like a kind of prison to him.

Similar climate to Toronto. No reason we can't be the same.

From 1925: a prediction that, as more people choose to drive to the countryside, cars will end up destroying the very beauty that people go to see.

I'm a bitch, I'm a lover, I'm a station, I'm

Literally just a mayor making peoples lives better and the Democrats are losing their fucking minds. They're more mad about this than they are about Republicans working to make people's lives worse.

If Toronto does this Doug Ford will appropriate Centre Island and build a data centre on it.

"People drive to my bar, they always have" is a quote that sticks in my head from an episode of City Space I made about people who opposed bike lanes on Toronto's Bloor Street. The guy's bar is near a GO train station and next to the Lake Ontario waterfront bike trail. It is not on Bloor Street.

I cannot figure out how to get Nextdoor to stop sending me emails about places I no longer live in, so my spam folder looks like this every day.

Absolutely no reason that a car-free street needs more policing than usual.

I mean yeah its an obvious conflict of interest but luckily it will get max 150 listeners

Also notice how there's no road rage. No fury. No screaming. Folks braked, stopped briefly, and kept rolling. It's amazing how interactions change when you're not anonymous in a steel cage.

Whatever you do, don't get any ideas on how to make a quick buck from this article. That would be irresponsible. Don't do it.

Centrist Americans being mystified by Kier Starmer's unpopularity despite him doing everything they're always telling Democrats to do is so funny. Just the biggest dumbasses around.

I actually think Keir Starmer's whole problem might be that people who work at the Economist think he's great

Hi. If there are 30 good reasons to dislike a Prime Minister then they are a bad prime minister. Can I have a job at the economist I am very smart.

I wonder what the tourists in Toronto are making of the views of highways and the construction site that is Ontario Place along the waterfront next to Toronto Stadium. Not exactly the best of Canada.

Things I can only experience in Toronto because I bike.

Good. 😌

I was recently in Tofino, staring at a clear, dark sky for the first time in a good while. It was pretty depressing how many satellites I could see. Somehow we've polluted the night sky. We do not deserve this earth.

The World Tonight was the first BBC Radio 4 show I directed. I was so proud the first time my name was read live in the credits. It's a rare shows that gives interviews time to breathe and allows the audience to reflect on the news of the day. What BBC will be left? deadline.com/2026/06/bbc-...

I love modern video games because sometimes a game that ran fine yesterday will take 2 hours to start and then run like trash.

When Okamoto puts one in the 500s

It is 2026 and I just saw an ad for a podcast editor job *with video* paying $150/episode.

Unfortunately a popular opinion, but also a stupid one. You can hate sharing a road with bikes, or you can hate bike lanes. The reason why is pretty obvious if you think about it for like 5 seconds.

Toronto can't even allow a cute patio on a side street without dressing it up as a traffic hazard. This is an *alley*. Cars don't move more than 5km/h here, the turn is too sharp. It's quite literally a needless barrier to a pleasant outdoor space.

Carney's credentials are supposedly that he is the sensible, sober man in the room, but any armchair economist can see how ruinous the AI bubble is going to be. Our taxes will be paying for this mistake for years, and AI isn't even popular. Odd thing to blow political capital on.

I've been on a plane so I am a pilot

Truly awesome reporting work by @emmapaling.bsky.social and @thelocal.to here, taking the reader inside a safe consumption site so you can see for yourself the effects of its coming closure. thelocal.to/moss-park-sa...

Having a suburban dad summer (listening to baseball on the radio on the patio with a six pack of beer)

Feels like everyone except the Federal government and excessive LinkedIn posters have got the memo about AI.

I understand bylaw enforcement has a job to do. I try to see both sides. But the signage bylaw these stalls were supposedly breaking is obviously not applied evenly across the city. Toronto is New York run by the energy vampire from What We Do In The Shadows.

Perhaps the best part of this is that Puig isn't even helping them win games.

Handy of them to make it bright red so you can spot the apologists in the crowd

Thanks, Vonnegut. 💜

Sportsnet ads be like

Two headlines attempting to tell the same story, with one very important word missing from CP24's version.

We hit a milestone with Pagenerd over the weekend. Thanks to our first 1000 subscribers, cheers to the next 1000. Pagenerd.com to be one of them!

To compliment my Toronto Maple Leafs (the baseball team not the hockey team) I now have a Canadians sweater (the Vancouver Canadians baseball team not the Montreal hockey team)

I'm in Vancouver and it's really striking how some road alterations can turn what was previously a traffic sewer into a pleasant walk. This is what we could have in Toronto with the political will.

Apple has more money than God and yet their baseball coverage is college student broadcast quality.
