ALL THE LATEST ABOUT TORONTO THIS WEEK |
Is former Toronto mayor John Tory planning a political comeback in next year’s municipal election? In a new report from the Toronto Star, various unnamed sources say Tory is currently “on the fence” about running and put his chances at “more likely than not”—but also “50/50,” “90 per cent” and “changing by the day,” so the situation is obviously super clear. Tory himself has not commented on the rumours, but one of the Star’s sources notes that he would move forward only if he felt confident he could win. |

“My straight friend is insisting on hosting her bachelorette party in the Village, and I’m not feeling it. I’m thrilled that she wants to include me, but I’m gay, and I’ve watched for years as the neighbourhood has turned into a place where straight people go to gawk at my community while they party. I confronted her about it, and she said I was being too sensitive but that I could sit this one out if it made me uncomfortable. Should I boycott her event or go along to get along?” |

The city’s concrete jungle often feels more like a desert in the summer, with sunlight reflecting off all surfaces and condo balconies acting as shady oases. But, for a few weeks, Torontonians can ditch their handheld fans and instead lounge beneath a maple in a slow-rolling shopping cart. The Bentway has just launched Sun/Shade, a series of installations along the waterfront that offer potential solutions to rising temperatures. |
Afrim Pristine, maître fromager and co-owner of Toronto’s premier cheese emporium, is hosting a charitable cheese-palooza on Canada Day, with all proceeds going to St. Joseph’s Health Centre’s mental health programs and support services. What better way to celebrate the birth of the country than by eating cheese in the name of charity? |
