Be careful if you have asthma, COPD or another respiratory illness. Smoke from forest fires will pollute Toronto's air again this week https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/toronto-air-quality-wildfire-smoke-1.6890427

The loss of these discount airlines Canada will once again return to having the highest airfares in the world. :mad: I flew Swoop a few months back to Vancouver. It wasn't that bad. Had that public transit feel but it was only a 5 hour flight and only $200 there and back. West Jet, Air...

Right wing hillbillies. Tune in at night you either hear oldies or rabid right wing ideology from the US stations.

This is so many people. They all think owning a restaurant is easy, it's like "my wife and I throw amazing dinner parties.... let's open a restaurant" I was a server at a restaurant owned by a retried dentist. He bit off more than he could chew and lost everything, he even had to sell...

I went to a fast food establishment recently, and got the tip screen on the debit machine. I asked the girl... Do you get the tips? she said Um.........................Yes. The fact she had to stop and think about it. Tells me she isn't getting the tips, the owner is! And no, i didn't...

I always tip with cash and I tip before taxes, the automated tip %is always after which i hate!!!! in hand cash tips are always better for both sides.

Good for the LCBO and Beer Stores, not so good for those who don't own cars.... I like having my local Loblaws selling beer and wine. I can just walk down the street for a six pack or a bottle of wine. https://www.blogto.com/eat_drink/2023/06/loblaws-stops-selling-beer-wine-toronto-locations/

Yeah..sure NY Post.. Just ignore all the evidence of climate change and blame Canada like they were intentionally setting the fires. :rolleyes:

Ottawa in daylight! Quebec wildfires smoke has hit NYC

Out and about today i saw a lot of cyclists and walkers wearing masks. I haven't seen that many people wearing masks outdoors since the early days of the pandemic. When i biked home from work. My eyes were actually burning. Now i have been inside a few hours, i feel back to normal.

It's getting smoky out there..... *cough cough* https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2023/06/05/a-blood-moon-hazy-skies-poor-air-quality-toronto-is-feeling-the-effects-of-quebec-wildfires.html Good chunk of Ontario is in the extreme (red) or high (yellow) risk

The craziness continues. Some guy randomly attacks a passenger on a bus. It was reported that the victim was standing on board an eastbound TTC bus near the front doors, while the suspect was sitting near the rear exit doors. “As the bus came to a stop at Kennedy Road, with no provocation...

Police are looking for this thug. https://www.blogto.com/city/2023/06/police-hunting-armed-man-who-threatened-shoot-toronto-politicians/

It's gotten a lot worse. I have been taking transit for 20 years. Seems like there is more young delinquents than ever. My neighbor has closed his his convince store last year because of the brazen shop lifting. Not homeless people either, its Gangs of teens go in and steal as much as...

That was an expensive large firework! That's powerful enough to kill someone. Even more disturbing and sickening, TTC has confirmed more incidents in which fireworks were set off inside transit vehicles! :mad: Only 14 years old and smiling! What the hell is going on with these kids? Chronic...

Or America. Shared dockless scooters are all over NYC and San Antonio. I was in Vegas recently. They had e-scooter rental companies and tours of the city on e-scooters. That would be amazing for tourism in Toronto, if they weren't still stuck in the stone age.

Good idea. I remember years ago some of New York City's top restaurants doing this. You needed a credit card for reservations and they charged a fee if you don't show up.

Another case of Toronto plays whack-a-Mole with homeless encampments, where encampments are cleared from one neighborhood and then pop up again in another nearby park or even the same park in a few months from now.
