8 h. ago 'Licence suspended since 1985' and other ludicrous Ontario drivers busted this week

There are always different types of wacky antics taking place on Ontario's highways and local streets, and though no one has gotten embarrassingly stuck in a transit corridor or tunnel reserved for streetcars lately, this past week has yielded some pretty ridiculous traffic stops in the GTA.Along with Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) nabbing motorists stunt driving at speeds of nearly 180 km/h and trying to get away with phony licence plates, one of the more unbelievable busts on the province's roadways in recent days involved someone getting behind the wheel despite the fact that their licence was suspended not just years, but decades ago.The OPP shared the shocking story to social media Wednesday evening, stating that officers had pulled the person in question over for speeding along Highway 407 in Burlington, only to find that they hadn't had a valid licence for a whopping 40 years."Suspended driver since...

The largest U.S. border crossing in Canada is gearing up to open in Ontario, though, despite construction now passing the finish line, nobody has any clue when they will be able to finally use it.The Gordie Howe International Bridge now stands proud over the Detroit River, soon to provide a direct link between Ontario's Highway 401 and Michigan's I-75 and close a longstanding missing link in the busy international shipping corridor.New photos and video captured in October show that the bridge and points of entry on either side of the border are all but complete. Work on the 2.5-kilometre-long bridge commenced seven years ago with an anticipated Nov. 2024 completion and Dec. 2024 opening. This target was later adjusted to a vague Fall 2025 completion and a complete blackout on any potential opening dates.An opening date for the new $6.4 billion crossing has not been announced as of mid-October.Though construction appears all but complete, a damning report released earlie...

10 h. ago Ontario's unemployment crisis is reaching concerning new highs

The latest job figures for Canada have just been released, and, woefully, Ontario's unemployment rate continues to push higher amid what has become a joblessness crisis.According to StatCan, a shocking 7.9 per cent of the province's workforce is now without a paying gig, despite some growth in the manufacturing and agriculture sectors (which added 12,000 and 5,200 roles, respectively, over the course of September).This is a slight jump from just a month earlier, when 7.7 per cent of the eligible population was looking for work, and also from this time last year, when Ontario's rate of unemployment was 7.1 per cent.In Toronto, the proportion of job seekers remained about the same between August and September, sitting at a significantly higher level than the province overall: 8.9 per cent.The fact that this number didn't rise from one month to the next is somewhat reassuring after increases earlier in the year, though the city's u...
