Geez, I know Canada's not a huge market, but the best they could do for the Grey Cup halftime show was MGK?

Why the hell is MGK performing at the Grey Cup? Too hard finding a Canadian artist? @cfl.ca

This American artist performing at the Grey Cup halftime show could have been a Canadian artist performing at the Grey Cup halftime show.

I'm writing about slip lanes (channelized right turns) in Toronto and I am working on mapping all locations in the city, as well as noting ones that were removed in the last two decades.

Which ones am I missing? Let me know!

My favourite melodic dubstep mix of all time is by Christine Vaccine (RIP). It got me through a lot of dubstep seasons (which runs from October to February, sometimes extended into March).

I’m trialing the poppy enamel pin this year, because wearing the classic edition with a needle to hold it in usually leads to losing one’s poppy.

If there were a recording of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, the upcoming play to be performed in London, England, I would pay whatever it costs to have a DVD copy of it.

TIL that Hand Eye Society is on here.
Was fun to try some new games by Toronto developers while waiting for a spicy meatball sub and ice cream at Good Behaviour.

If you’re Canadian and want if you want to get something off your chest without anybody noticing, the next few hours would be a good time.

Do we Toronto Blue Jays fans, longtime and bandwagon (the bandwagon is always open and everybody’s welcome!), have a plan for the emotions we're going to feel tonight? Sports is emotions, and if you’re riding the wave for Game 7, there’s going to be a lot of them.

I’m of the opinion that, if you’re watching a baseball game, you should take the opportunity of the 7th-inning stretch to actually stretch.
