Even if houses in and around Toronto are no longer flying off the market like they used to — the case is quite the contrary, actually — the city's real estate continues to grow ever less affordable.Sales are in a protracted slump and new listings are surging, making hard to sense even a hint of the old urgency the region's market has hitherto been known for.But still, prices are proving surprisingly indifferent to what's actually happening on the ground, with simply the idea that there is perennial demand serving as enough to keep the city's property as eternally overvalued as ever.(To be fair, if you bought a slice of the GTA market for a whopping $1,334,544 two years ago — the average price for a home of any type at the time — how would you feel about having to let it go for much less?)A new report on housing affordability across Canada shows how things worsened for buyers in nearly every city in&n...

2 h. ago Beloved burger joint in Toronto grows from one to nine locations in under a decade

What began as a cozy, independent burger shop founded by childhood friends has become one of Toronto's most popular chains over the past nine years, and it shows few signs of slowing down.Ask any die-hard Toronto smash burger fanatic which is their favourite, and there's a fairly solid chance that, alongside competitors like Burger Drops and Matty's Patties, they'll say RUDY.Not for nothing, but many of us agree.So popular have RUDY's burgers become in the nine years since the inaugural location of the burger shop opened in Little Italy, in fact, that the burger business now more closely resembles an empire, with co-founder and owner Luke McCann on a war path to spread the gospel of Toronto's best smash burgers across the entire province.That's not to say that RUDY's success in Toronto was instantaneous, though. In fact, Luke tells me that the rise to the top, so to speak, has actually been a slow and steady one.The chain, founded by Luke and his long-time friend Chris Simpson,...
