64 h. ago What a $5 million Toronto interior designer's home looks like

If houses could flirt, 239 Borden St. would wink at you from across the street, pull you inside, and then casually drop the fact that it has a 400-bottle wine cellar, rooftop hot tub, and stained glass windows from 1878. We're already blushing.  Professionally rebuilt by designer and owner Lyndsay Jacobs, the house was taken down to its bones — leaving only the original front façade intact — before being transformed into a four-storey showcase of craftsmanship, function, and character.The project wrapped up in July 2023, and it has already been celebrated with a House & Home "House of the Month" feature and featured in Beta Publishing's Timeless Living.The front of the house. Although, to be fair, we'd expect nothing less from a designer's own home. The living room. Inside, the first thing that strikes you is the mix of history and modernity.A powder room with a Red Alicante marbl...

3 d. ago Who decides if Rogers Centre roof opens for Toronto Blue Jays playoff games?

When the Toronto Blue Jays take to the field this Saturday for their first game of the playoffs, you can bet that it'll be quite the pop coming from the local crowd.It's been three years since the last time Toronto hosted a playoff game, and fans are eagerly anticipating how the American League East champions might fare this fall.But one of the biggest questions on everyone's minds is: will the game be played indoors or outdoors?The seven-day forecast from the Weather Network shows temperatures as high as 24°C on Saturday afternoon, which would conceivably be warm enough for an open roof for Toronto's first playoff game.But at the Rogers Centre, indoor playoff games have been the standard since its opening as the SkyDome way back in 1989. And while a fair-weather outdoor baseball game is one of the best ways to watch any sport, it's not usually the case come October in Toronto.The Jays have hosted just five outdoor playoff home games in their history: four in...

3 d. ago AI used to speed up Canadian immigration draws warning from experts

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has adopted technology to speed up application processing, but experts warn it may be creating more problems than it solves.Mario Bellissimo, an immigration lawyer and founder of Bellissimo Law Group PC, described the IRCC's use of AI as an "inevitable" and "commendable development.""The principal advantage lies in efficiency. Processing times have been reduced, routine cases are triaged more effectively, and officers are able to concentrate their efforts on more complex matters," he said. "For example, automation in spousal sponsorships and temporary resident visa applications has significantly decreased assessment times."But although automation has helped reduce processing times, these gains raise issues about fairness and potential bias in decision-making.Efficiency vs. fairnessHowever, Bellissimo points to some serious issues, such as an over-reliance on technology.&quo...
