5 h. ago Canada could be getting 'nutrition facts' labels for telecom plans

"Nutrition labels have been around for decades, are familiar to most, if not all, Canadians, and have consistently helped people make clearer, faster and more informed decisions about complex products," reads the opening statement from University of Ottawa professor Marina Pavlovic."They distill dense scientific data, such as sodium content and serving size, into an easy‑to‑read format that supports everyday decision‑making."While her stance may be clear, there were four days of hearings during which major telecoms, minor players, advocacy groups and concerned citizens presented their cases to the CRTC regarding the potential for new nutrition labels for Canadian home internet. The U.S. did something similar in the spring of 2024. However, since it's only been out for a little while, adoption numbers should be taken with a grain of salt.The goal of these labels is to make it easier for everyday Canadians to compare internet plans with one easy-...

6 h. ago Director of Pixar hits dishes up her top Toronto restaurants

Toronto director Domee Shi is a well-documented lover of the city, and she stopped by to share her favourite restaurants in town.While her latest film, Disney Pixar's Elio, doesn't take place in Toronto, Shi's filmography proves adequate evidence of her love for the city she grew up in, particularly seen in her last major feature, Turning Red, which was set in Toronto.Despite the broadening of Shi's cinematic horizons, Toronto maintains a tender spot in the director's heart, and on a recent visit to the city to promote Elio, she sat down to share some of her favourite places to eat when she's back home.The fact that dim sum is the first cuisine Shi seeks out in the city comes as little surprise, given the director's proclivity for depicting Chinese cuisine and culture in her films (hello, have you seen Bao?). She explains that Chinatown's Rol San is her ultimate go-to.    View this post on Instagram     &nb...
