Happy weekend! Although temperatures have dropped, there’s no shortage of stuff to do from the comfort of home. You could check out some fashion runways at Indigenous Fashion Week Toronto. Need to get in some Christmas shopping? There are many Christmas markets our city has to offer (mostly virtual, by the way!). If you’re looking for a […]
Happy Friday! How’s your week going? I usually start these off with a week of weather in review, but it’s simply getting too unpredictable! I’ve worn my parka more than once this week, so that’s saying something. Cool temperatures are ideal for my favourite thing these days: staying home!! Speaking of, here’s a few ideas […]
Happy Friday! Did you enjoy that burst of November spring this week? I’m sad to see it go. Although, it helps given all the lingering feelings of daylight savings time and that post-election stress. It’s been a good week for some normalcy, though! Santa Claus is coming to town and CityFolk will happen, just a […]
It’s been another interesting week in the capital! We move into the orange phase tomorrow, which means restaurants, gyms and theatres are able to open again.

SHOPPING All malls are closed Monday, with the exception of Rideau Centre which will be OPEN from 10 AM to 6 PM. Some businesses in the ByWard Market and in the Glebe are allowed to […]
It’s been an interesting week in the capital. Cases are way up and we are on the cusp of moving from Code Orange to Code Red, which would likely involve a huge move backwards from the progress and the re–openings we’ve seen in the city. While Dr. Vera Etches doesn’t want to make that move because it […]
How are you doing? It has been a tough week in our city. COVID-19 cases are spiking and we’ve been asked to reduce our social interactions to 10 people indoors and 25 people outdoors. The province has announced more COVID-19 testing sites will open across the city to help alleviate longer waiting times but with that […]
