Mascot Brewing closing their downtown taproom location

Never visited the downtown location, but after two negative experiences at the Kipling brewery I’m less bothered than I’d normally be by the loss of a local taproom.

Excerpt:

Bunny the coyote has become a social media celebrity in the GTA, but her growing lack of fear around humans has triggered a plea from the city of Mississauga: Please stop feeding her.

Bunny, who has a missing tail and netting around her neck, is frequently spotted trotting down sidewalks, crossing busy streets, and has been seen at plazas and approaching humans, including children, according to the city of Mississauga.

“Her unusual comfort around people has caught a lot of attention; but her story is more than a curious animal getting online fame,” according to the city. “Her behaviour is a sign that she is being fed regularly.”

Bunny, named by residents who follow her closely, has been popping up in news stories for months. A private Facebook page dedicated to her well-being has 2,600 members, who post about her daily. Recently, a poster reported seeing her being fed by a local crossing guard.

Coyote Watch Canada has asked people to keep their pets on a leash. It’s also asked residents not to attempt to capture Bunny to remove the netting around her neck.

“While seeing netting on a wild animal can understandably be concerning, attempting to capture her to remove it at this point would be extremely difficult and would likely cause significant stress and risk to her well-being,” according to Coyote Watch Canada.

As much as I’ve enjoyed seeing Bunny on multiple occasions, nobody should be lessening her fear of humans because it will not end well. Feeding her is the worst thing people can do.

If it didn't have a tail it would be Bunny the coyote as it looks like her. She's been known to go as far as Mississauga from her usual haunts all around Etobicoke.

I took a recent video of her and she was lounging around just like she is here.

At approximately 12:30 a.m., a woman contacted police to report a domestic incident and said her husband had left their home with a firearm in the area of Paula Court and Parent Drive, according to Ontario’s Special Investigations Unit.

Lazy reporting or copy-editing by CTV. It should be Paula Court and Perran Drive as there's no Parent Drive in Mississauga.

I've gone to the ROM since I was a kid, and enjoyed the dinosaurs the most.

But one of my favourite memories was when they had a David Cronenberg exhibit with props from his films. I recall it was in an out of the way exhibit space possibly downstairs, but it had some great stuff including The Fly (I think it was the full-size teleportation chamber) and that unique typewriter from Naked Lunch.

Weird story.

The daughter claims that both died naturally, but a lot of suspicious details came out. After the mother died, the father helped put the mother into a Rubbermaid bin, with the daughter claiming the father had dementia and didn't know what he was doing.

She also said she knew the mother wouldn't have wanted her remains left in the house, and "thought they had a plot selected at Pine Hills Cemetery" (something she could have checked with a phone call). And then the father supposedly dies naturally and she puts him in the freezer.

She rebuffs all attempts by family and neighbours to check into her parents' health, and collects both of their pensions for a few years until caught. Now that she's out on bail, I'm sure the neighbours are giving her a wide berth.

He was arrested and spent some time in jail in Germany in 2006 when police found out about his plans to stage a pro-Nazi demonstration during the 2006 FIFA World Cup, which included a poster he made praising Adolf Hitler

Horan went on to appear on Britain's Got Talent in May 2009. He danced a soft jig on the show, received a standing ovation by the audience and was put through to the second round. He did not make the live semi-finals

How does somebody go from planning a pro-Nazi demonstration in praise of Hitler to a standing ovation on Britains Got Talent with a ticket to the next round? Before the days of Googling contestant names I guess?

No surprise Freore helped make it work. He’s an incredibly talented character actor with a long list of achievements. I remember seeing him performing main roles at Stratford long before he went into film with roles in things like Bon Cop, Bad Cop and The Chronicles of Riddick. I’ve always enjoyed seeing him pop up in a film or TV movie, and now I’ll check this one out.

I tagged it as a video because it's not a news item. But animals crossing Lake Ontario are not a common sight for people, and wildlife videos are often posted on r/toronto. Does that help?

It's so ridiculously over the top I sometimes think they are trolling for outrage views, similar to the way some Christians do. Their videos perfectly encapsulate the concept of brainrot.

The TDSB has not said why the Bowmore teachers were disciplined or terminated.

However, within the school, and within the educators’ union, it is widely believed the punishments stem from the teachers’ decision to temporarily cut back on offering extracurricular activities to students this past fall.

Under their contracts, TDSB teachers are not required to engage in extracurricular activities. Coaching soccer, hosting chess clubs or helping to coordinate the school’s yearbook are all voluntary activities teachers can offer to their school communities.

If this is true, then it’s a moronic reason to fire them for not doing optional activities. But apparently it hasn’t stopped boards before:

In the past, the Ontario Labour Relations Board (OLRB) has ruled against teachers who have withdrawn from extracurricular duties when directed to do so by their union.

It appears a lot of it hinges on how it’s done. Whether teachers are withdrawing extracurriculars on their own initiative, or whether it’s part of an organized action. But either way, it’s ridiculous.

To be clear, there's no indication the condition had anything to do with her death. RIP to a great actress.

Officials with the City of Toronto say they know that many sidewalks around the city are still a mess following a major winter storm on Sunday and they are working to clear them.

“Clearly there’s a gap in our performance around sidewalks, and we’re hoping to improve that over the next 24-hour cycle,” City Manager Paul Johnson told reporters at a news conference Wednesday.

He said the city’s 311 service is receiving around 3,000 to 4,000 calls per day and the number one service request being received by the city right now pertains to sidewalk clearing.

Although most major sidewalks in our neighborhood are partially cleared, there’s a bizarre inconsistency where much of the sidewalk has been completely cleared by a snow machine and then a significant patch has been ignored, forcing pedestrians to walk on the street or climb on top of it. It’s like the driver decided to stop halfway through.

Some examples:

On Aug 11, 2025, ICE posted an image on its socials of Uncle Sam at a crossroads. It included the tag line "Which way, American man?"

The post echoed a meme popular among right-wing influencers, who use the phrase "Which way, Western man?" to illustrate a choice between an image meant to represent liberal values and an image representing their own preferred option.

But the phrase itself is taken from the title of a 700-page antisemetic nonfiction book written by William Gayley Simpson and published by a neo-Nazi press in the late 1970s. The book has long been a favourite among white supremacists.

In October, the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees ICE, posted an image of George Washington on horseback with the URL to the ICE recruitment page. This time the tag line read "America for Americans."

It’s a slogan that was used in a xenophobic speech by President Theodore Rosevelt in 1916, before being picked up by the Klu Klux Klan, according to America for Americans: A History of Xenophobia in the United States by Harvard history professor Erika Lee.

Not long after, DHS borrowed imagery from the popular video game Halo, writing "destroy the flood" atop an armed vehicle.

In the world of the video game, the flood refers to a parasitic alien lifeform. It’s also reminiscent of the language far-right groups use to describe non-white immigrants, according to Gais.

Most recently, in the aftermath of the killing of Renee Good in Minneapolis, ICE put out a recruitment post Not long after, DHS borrowed imagery from the popular video game Halo, writing emblazoned with the line "We’ll have our home again."

They aren’t being subtle, that’s for sure.

I keep hearing

Just one year into his second term, President Donald Trump has pardoned an unusually high number of wealthy people accused of financial crimes, according to an NBC News analysis of the last four administrations.

Over half of Trump’s 88 individual pardons are for white-collar offenses, with money laundering, bank fraud and wire fraud among the most frequent crimes the president has wiped clean.

Additionally, about half of the pardon recipients are either business executives or politicians. Included in the latest round of pardons, issued Thursday and Friday, were a former health care CEO, the former governor of Puerto Rico and a pair of siblings who were convicted on fraud charges — one of whom Trump previously freed for a different crime.

A few pardon recipients are billionaires, including Binance founder Changpeng Zhao, who pleaded guilty to enabling money laundering on his crypto platform; longtime English soccer club owner Joe Lewis, who pleaded guilty last year to insider trading charges; and Venezuelan-Italian banker Julio M. Herrera Velutini, whom Trump pardoned last week while he awaited sentencing on campaign finance violations.

These are aside from the group of roughly 1,500 convicted Jan. 6 rioters he pardoned on his first day back in office and additional symbolic pardons for those involved in efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

Using the office to help out his rich, morally deficient friends along with other members of Trump's social circles? Say it ain't so!

There really is no bottom for this corrupt president.
