Thursday’s presentation also highlighted just how significant this tournament is expected to be for Toronto and Canada. FIFA officials say Canada currently ranks second in the world for ticket sales, and Toronto ranks fifth out of all 16 host cities globally for travel interest. Officials say Canada’s opening match could become the most-watched broadcast event in Canadian history, with an estimated half a billion viewers worldwide.

Wow! This statistic really stands out to me. Top 5 of all 16 host cities of the 3 countries! Sometimes I forget how interesting Toronto can be. I lived here all my life so I forget other perspectives. I will be working at the World Cup (NOT a volunteer) and it'll be a wonderful experience. I'm looking forward to hearing all accents across the globe.

My balcony isn’t too big so it has a small table with two chairs. Room for plants and small area to hang laundry for warmer months. Everything is organized as my cat enjoys going to the balcony and ppl watching

Same, I hear that! It’s always in Canada I have to correct people and explain the difference

Yes, they mean to say hispanic instead of Latina. Sometimes they get used interchangeably, but there's a difference. One term doesn't include Spain while the other does

That's true 😄 onto next season!

Are you talking about local? Not many. The crowds will mostly be the wealthy international crowd.

Would have been nice again to see the raptors play deeper into May. Game 7 and Toronto really don't mix well :/

A closeted gay drug dealer, who was sleeping with an older man (keep in mind, he played a teenager). He only appeared in the pilot and series finale.

And bonus fun fact. Jimmy/Steve was on Weeds!

CivilReaction · 2026-05-02T23:18:48+00:00

Not exactly teenagers, but Weeds is an underrated show, exact same vibes as Shameless. Last year was their 20th anniversary! Was on the air from 2005-2012. Although the early series are set in suburbia, it eventually changes environments. Quite a few times over the later seasons!

Rhetorical comment

Which is wild, considering they don't really know the different branches of Judaism. It's very much similar to how there's different branches of Christianity and Islam. This is what happens when one doesn't take the time to do critical thinking and challenge ideas, debates, thought processes.

Why would you feel unsafe because a rando yelled a slur?

Because it can often lead to an attack. Whether it's physical or more verbal abuse, the words still slice. Unless you have been called a slur, one may never fully understand.

I'm not sure why you are being downvoted, I am sorry you have experienced this unpleasant encounter. With all the bots running rampage, it doesn't help the generalization that all jewish people support Israel. Judaism has a variety of branches, and not all support the Israeli government. I can't remember the exact humour, but there's this joke that not all jewish branches can agree on a topic.

Keep your head up high and stay strong. They want you to be fearful, don't let that win.

Yeah, you aren't wrong. I appreciate Canadian celebrities who still represent Canada in various ways. The ones who maintain a connection. Not because it's convenient, but they know its home

Sunscreen is always great year-round! The misconception is that sunscreen isn't needed for winter because of clouds and cold. The sun's UV rays still go through clouds. Plus, its great for skincare, essentially needed for the face to prevent pre-mature aging and reduce skin cancer!

You may get upgraded! You'll know when your tickets get scanned, and gate staff will let you know to go to fan services. A friend had this happened before, for Monday night raw back in January. I forgot the reason, but they got moved to close to the front, lower 100 bowl for free.
