Perhaps my favourite thing about second-act Brendan Fraser is how complimentary he is about his co-workers: he oozes sincerity these days vt.tiktok.com/ZSxQvQMSv/

This is the most important piece of data journalism all year and (for me) it's not even close: Dynamic pricing by location is endemic at McDonald's in Toronto: www.reddit.com/r/toronto/co...

Manitoba banning restrictive covenants by grocery stores (legal agreements in leases that block landlords from leasing to competitors) is big, bold pro-competitive change vt.tiktok.com/ZSPNeJeKj/

The Finch West LRT being slower than the bus it's replacing might be my personal Joker moment. The army of people who fought to preserve LRTs in the face of a mountain of dishonesty from multiple parties deserved an honest effort to make them actually operate well. Instead, we get Toronto.

The answer to anyone asking why Canadians are avoiding U.S. travel: www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

Little sympathy over here for Tim Hortons suggesting it needs temporary foreign workers to staff its locations. How about hire locally? www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Two ways to frame this: A: The Supreme Court created this problem by setting a cap on how long is reasonable for a criminal trial to take. B: Provinces created this with a mix of underfunding the court system and policing that can't produce convictable cases www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

Pitch perfect… reality’s writers keep cranking out awesome twists: www.nbcnews.com/politics/ele...

Here's a headline that will put you deep in your thoughts: "Neutrino results offer possible clue as to why matter exists" "Why is there something instead of nothing?" GREAT QUESTION SCIENCE I WASN'T THINKING ABOUT THAT UNTIL YOU MENTIONED IT! www.theglobeandmail.com/world/articl...

Is there anyone better at this than Mark MacKinnon? What a devastating, beautiful story about the way war actually works on people ... people! Going beyond the lines on the map to talk about the humans at risk. Incredible stuff. www.theglobeandmail.com/world/articl...

Guess what? We’re not going to get out of this mess, or any mess, by posting about it/them on social media.

How did iPro Realty Ltd. go from one of the largest brokerages is Ontario to being shut down in less than a week? Ahead of a routine financial inspection iPro informed regulators it found a $10M shortfall in its trust accounts for deposits and commissions. www.theglobeandmail.com/business/art...

It’s actually a small number and likely won’t be the last of such supports

More like Smack-Intosh, am I right? Summer tearing it up in the pool … JEEZ

This is journalism-movie stuff: Colleague Carrie Tait is basically being stalked by someone(s?) who is sharing pictures of her meeting with alleged/potential sources in the Alberta Health Services scandal. Absolutely WILD ...

Fav restaurant sign in Toronto has a mascot that's a mentally ill Shawarma in a straight jacket

How many times have linesmen collided with players in these playoffs and been involved in a turnover that lead to a goal. Feels like at least six times that I've watched.

This is wild. I truly believed Trump’s team was going to try to leave this guy in exile.

"Lay it, onnnnn the Liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnne!!!" I am so jealous of Edmonton right now (things I'm not used to saying part kajillion): www.ctvnews.ca/edmonton/art...

“Hot dogs aren’t political” (gm)

I sat down with Adam Vaughan to hear his pitch for the Therme waterpark. A barrage of bluster. www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

CBC upfront day.

Trump corruption story so bad it gets the rare straightforward NYT headline www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/u...

>tries to look up if bell has an outage >their outage checking page is down i think there might be an outage

That guy, looking utterly forlorn and shook as he puts and blindfold over his eyes is going to be an all-time Maple Leafs meme.

Barf. Trade everyone except Knies. Same old Leafs. It’s the hope that kills you.

Elsa Lam continues to prove & document how corrupt & full of lies the Doug Ford closure of the science centre was & is. Read & share widely - not that it matters in Ontario, a province that seems ok w a high level of this. www.canadianarchitect.com/draft-engine...

How many Leafs fans are just not going to watch?

Leafs losing 2-0 in their own barn, lead in the series at stake… playing like usual. Can’t get out of their own end. Can’t score on Bob. Hope slip slidin’ away.

On the plus side he is making plans for leaving the presidency.

Exactly 50 years ago today, I arrived in Canada from a refugee camp. It was only five years ago that I discovered that a Toronto Star photographer had snapped a picture of me during a stopover of the flight that took my family to Montreal. digitalarchiveontario.ca/objects/2030...

This hits different here in 2025.

What does the new pope think about Malort?

cheer up Toronto, they've set the precedent that mid-size Great Lakes metros can also have Cardinals that become Popes, we'll get it next time

Would also have accepted “Popa Cola I” for the papal name of the first American to serve as the head of the Catholic church.

Uuuuuggghhh…. Rat Parade in Toronto. Marchand draws a questionable penalty after he earns at least two, and it’s the Panthers PP that scores.

The Toronto Regional Real Estate Board (TRREB) wants to completely replace its existing by-laws on May 14 to give the board of directors sole control over things like raising annual fees and suspending elected directors: www.theglobeandmail.com/real-estate/...

McGarvey should make public connections between voting patterns & effects. Like actually draw the lines. Keep the shelves bare (filled w stuff from other places)

Hi, I don’t usually post this on here but despite my better wishes I am a Toronto Maple Leafs sicko who can’t stop watching them try to break other team’s fists with their faces… so tonight could be rough.

Yeah, that’s a no from me dog.

Billy Corgan, Welcome to @thewaroncars.bsky.social.

There are three races with 28, 46 and 54 vote margins and those special ballots left to count… wild. newsinteractives.cbc.ca/elections/fe...

Well shit: “The Liberals were leading or elected in 168 seats when the counting was paused, four short of a majority. Elections Canada estimated that the uncounted votes could affect the result in about a dozen ridings.” I know all many of these folks are retirees in the counting office but c’mon.

These photos from a real estate listing show the house as it is: nearly 100% original, and one of the best modern houses in the country.

An endangered Modern masterpiece in Toronto. In 1960 Isadore Sharp, founder of Four Seasons, commissioned this house from British-Canadian architect Peter Dickinson. It recently sold and is threatened with demolition. 36 Green Valley Rd.
