I opted to take the Megabus from TO to Mtl last year because it was only $85 round trip and actually arrived 20 minutes early! Downtown to downtown in just over 6 hours.

Those ads make me so angry! Not just a waste of our tax dollars, but full on propaganda! 🤬

I won't fly without a mask. I don't want to be sick during my vacation.

Congrats to Stoney! Here's some audio of the final inning of Stoneman's first no-hitter on April 17, 1969 as called by Dave Van Horne, with post-game interview by my dad, Russ Taylor. youtu.be/gr6vu0a8NBE?...

Thanks, @torontomike.com and @wilnerness.bsky.social (two of my favourite Mikes!) for being such great advocates for my dad. ❤️⚾

Mine was called a Footsie and it had a red bell on the end (late '60s/early '70s)

My late mother had an animatronic cat while she was dealing with dementia in the final year of her life. She named it Lesley (after me 😢) and it gave her great comfort.

They did it a few years ago on the 501 (at least here in the east end) though some of the choices they made were a bit odd.

That's wild. As far as I know, I've never had COVID. I take an antihistamine daily because of allergies. I'm also vaccinated/boosted and followed masking protocols.

I'm watching at the pub with no sound. No idea what's going on.

Jones Ave is a key N/S route for cyclists. Besides the pavement being in horrible condition, the painted bike lane is insufficient to keep us safe. Why is parking being prioritized over people's safety?

That was stupid on multiple levels.
