Drake’s ice structure being melted down by Toronto fire after crowds try to heat it up People had shown up with flammable liquids and uncontrolled open flames to try and melt the blocks of ice

Why are the fire department and city wasting resources on this? The owner/occupier of the property is responsible for keeping the property safe www.theglobeandmail.com/culture/musi...

A tie?! #oscars

The Toronto Sun calls the current self-defence law "absurd". So, instead it argues for an amendment that would mean that if your intoxicated teen accidentally stumbles into your neighbour's home, it would be presumed that your neighbour was justified in shooting them torontosun.com/opinion/edit...

Same! It very much spoke to me.

Hard-hitting journalism from My Pillow Press.

What if the artist trains the AI on their own images to create new ones? Or destroys AI-created work as critique à la Ai Weiwei? There are conceivably ways for artists to explore the use of AI in ethical ways.

He sold his Formula One tickets on StubHub. Instead of payment, he was fined $3K | CBC News An Ontario man who trusted StubHub with thousands of dollars worth of race tickets ended up empty handed. Paul Mann loaded seven Grand Prix tickets to the site and sold them, but instead of getting pa...

So the guy bought tickets that you're not allowed to resell on Stubhub, and then tried to re-sell them on Stubhub. 🙄 www.cbc.ca/news/gopubli...

Ignoring international law when it suits your interests only makes it more likely other countries will do the same when it suits theirs.

The city is never going to let this happen and open themselves up to the potential legal liability.

‘I wish them all the best. Run it like a business,’ Ford says as Humber Polytechnic moves to trim workforce Humber Polytechnic is offering “voluntary exit packages” to staff as it confronts mounting financial pressure, warning that deeper job cuts could follow if the uptake is low.

"Run it like a business." So, signing bonuses for new faculty? Free snacks and ping-pong tables in the employee lounge? Year-end bonuses based on customer, er, student satisfaction? www.ctvnews.ca/toronto/arti...

‘Wake up call,’ Toronto councillor says the city should follow New York and pay residents to shovel snow - NOW Toronto A Toronto councillor is calling on the city to pay residents to shovel snow, inspired by New York’s example.

A city that closed the elevated walkway around Nathan Phillips Square in the winter to avoid potential liability isn't going to let random people shovel sidewalks and risk residents slipping, falling, and suing. nowtoronto.com/news/wake-up...

Sunset in Toronto is at 6:01 p.m. today. It won't be before 6 p.m. again until November 1st. Spring is coming.

Trump: "Homes for people, not for corporations". How many buildings does Trump Inc. own?

Signal priority, definitely. But I was on the King streetcar today for the first time in a while, and they need to remove every other stop.

To clarify, it's a great idea in the context of snow removal. Maybe not so great in the context of not getting sued.

Sounds like a great idea that Toronto would study for a few years before ultimately shelving after being advised of legal risks and insurance costs.

Saw a guy on the bus this morning wad up a ball of napkins and light it on fire in his hand. He re-lit it a number of times, everytime the flame went out. Nobody batted an eye. A new one on the TTC.

Someone's working on their SNL audition reel

Sorry, you'll have to wait to get off the ice another few minutes, first we need you to accept this cute stuffy as a consolation prize.

And, look on the bright side, maybe Trump will realize you can't get the good feels of beating Canada in hockey if we're the 51st state, so he decides to leave alone.

Can't blame Matthews and company for playing for their country, but, man, if they visit the White House...

Three-on-three seems about as random as penalty shots.

Maybe stop buying your kids $400 hockey sticks when they could just use a $40 wooden one? www.ctvnews.ca/toronto/cons...

Unliberation Day!

Quite the scene at Toys 'R Us, where customers, trying to use their gift cards, have been told the store isn't letting more people in. Apparently police have been called.

Maybe I'm overthinking Trump's ramblings, but how would this work? A trade deal would allow Chinese companies to take over Canadian NHL teams and the new owners would shut them down?

Seems like the free speech crowd were really triggered by Spanish music. Good thing they have a safe space over at Fox News.

Are the French athletes about to diffuse a bomb? Enter a biohazard site? Go on a spacewalk? #OpeningCeremony

So Smith will allow more alleged criminals to go free due to delay unless the feds give her more of a say in selecting judges. Extortion federalism. www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...
