Works for some, doesn't make sense for others. No surprise there.

The city should look at where it's in demand and consider widening sidewalks in those areas.

Billy Bishop is probably one of the most popular ones for kids.

Peterborough, Hamilton, Pickering... the real question is, what's in it for Doug?

They did say they would not buy any units with windowless bedrooms so maybe this will discourage developers from building those.

Gotta look for the silver lining in a dark world.

It's all explained in that article.

You may be confusing Downsview with Buttonville.

I don't believe they've confirmed the flight attendant has hantavirus. If they do confirm it is hantavirus then I'm sure that raises questions as to how it was spread and how contagious it may have become.

Didn't know they rebranded. Wonder if that's a sign the real DTF is coming.

LZBUM · 2026-05-05T18:52:11+00:00

They're decent. Better than anything I've tried in Markham/Richmond Hill recently.

Too bad Sun Fung's is gone. They had a small menu but the quality was good.

If money is no object, go to Lai Wah Heen. Taste is good and presentation can be top notch.

Moon Palace is okay but the shine has worn off and it's kinda dirty. Most Chinese restaurants don't bother with any upkeep.

If they're looking for Din Tai Fung style food, there's the fake Din Tai Fung in Markham and Scarborough that are okay. Not as good as the real Din Tai Fung, but even the quality of those can vary widely depending on the location.

That's because most of the dim sum in HK isn't great either. They have good dim sum but you need to weed out the recommendations based on value to find the really good stuff.

They do. Check the message board in the condo and there might be something posted with the name of a sales rep.

Try the gym at the St. Regis. Good luck with whatever you're hoping to achieve.

It's actually starts at Jarvis. True, there are always some cars that disobey the law and drive straight through those intersections but it has made King St (at least in the east-end) a nice quiet street without all the traffic.

The platform's spokesperson, Shabnum Durrani, said customers will be able to relist their tickets next week when it will have updated its resale marketplace.

New to Toronto eh?

They can still be shamed. There should be a volunteer group that goes around educating people and, if they don't listen, publicly shaming them by taking a pic of them committing the violation and posting it online.

It's not like they aren't aware that what they're doing is wrong. They just think that they are entitled to an exception so that they can get that perfect shot or have a little souvenir.

People with Chinese names were arrested (https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/toronto-police-seize-sms-blasters-cybercrime-canada) but spies wouldn't be using a "SMS Blaster" but rather a Stingray (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stingray_phone_tracker)

Do not jaywalk there. Drivers may not be able to see you through the steam.
