Not sure what to do with your election signs? Leftovers don't always have to be boring! Dice them up and put them in your waffle maker for a delicious brunch the morning after.

Toronto, torn between giving drivers every inch of road space and helping restaurants serve more ppl, decided to do neither. Pylons block lanes with no restaurant patios in sight, a quintessentially Toronto move.

Dads need pickleball sets. And bikes. And grills. And any excuse really to get out, meet people, make friends, and live a more social life. https://t.co/KYw8b6pXaB

This weekend, dads everywhere will get a lot of gear they’ll never use. Look past the commercial hype and focus on the activities that can bring men together

If there's ever a time for Toronto restaurants to come together, and stage a protest by just putting tables out on the sidewalk, daring the city to do something, now is it.
OK I realize it’s not exactly a fun time to be outside in Toronto but this is still fucking bananas! cc @thekeenanwire the hoops! The endless red tape! The lack of help from the city! The expense (for a TINY basically USELESS patio) Im so mad @cityoftoronto

As we breathe smoke from climate change-worsened fires, consider that @fordnation and @ThermeCanada will: -bulldoze parkland and 850 mature trees -build a giant indoor energy sink of a spa -needlessly replace rather than repair the Science Centre -spend $500M public $ on parking

Ahh Toronto in the spring. Flowers. Sun. A fresh way to kill off the spring shoots of something innovative and fun and universally loved.
If you’re wondering where the patios are, city council killed many of them with bureaucracy just like affordable housing. An outcome many feared when council passed over-the-top regulations for CafeTO. https://t.co/A6v7qPgsAD

Barbra Streisand's memoir and Geddy Lee's memoir are out 7 days apart. How are we, as a Nation, preparing for this incredible, near-simultaneous release of Jewish musical excellence?
