If you have not heard, CUPE Local 416 (Outside workers) and CUPE Local 79 (Inside workers) are still on strike after over a month of walking off the job. This has left a lot of Toronto dirty and there have been an increased number of rat spottings around the city. Many people place blame on Mayor David Miller for not managing the money Toronto makes properly and spending it on stupid things, while [...]

Happy Canada Day to all of you Canadians (Canucks) out there! Too bad it is in the middle of the week this year :(

Now that Vancouver has won the chance to host the 2010 Winter Olympics, these are some questions people from all over the world are asking. Believe it or not these questions about Canada were posted on an International Tourism Website. Obviously the answers are a joke; but the questions were really asked!

It is times like this that [...]

Apparently Billy Bob Thornton does not want to even mention that he was an Actor before his music “career”. Who do [...]

There was speculation as to why he was late and the apparent reason for this was that he was in the toilet. Seriously?
