People in Toronto have been lining up for hours to get a bite of the city's latest viral sensation, but it beats a trip across the border.If you've been on the internet — TikTok specifically — anytime in the past three months, there's a very good chance that U.S. chain Chili's viral Triple Dipper has graced your For You Page.A gluttonous monstrosity featuring sliders, chicken tenders, and enormous mozzarella sticks, all priced at around $17.99 USD, the platter has been tried, reviewed and obsessed over by thousands of social media users to date.However, Torontonians eager to try the concoction have been left with only three options: head to one of the chain's handful of locations in Alberta, cross the border for it, or get comfortable with the reality that you'll never experience its epic cheese pull for yourself.Those were the only three options, rather, until Scarborough's Slider Station deci...

The last time 13 Cliff St. was up for sale, it was 1975.Canada had just switched to the metric system. Wearing a seatbelt had only recently become law in Ontario. And the CN Tower? Freshly finished and not yet surrounded by condos.A lot has changed in the last 50 years — but step inside this three-bedroom, two-bathroom bungalow, and it feels like time hit pause somewhere around the era of disco and Tang.The dining room. There's muted linoleum flooring in nearly every room, honey oak trim throughout, and original millwork galore.The foyer. Miraculously, no popcorn ceilings — so, you win some, you lose some.The kitchen. In short, this place is going to need some updating.The family room with exposed brick walls. But if you can look past the aggressively '70s aesthetic, 13 Cliff St. has a lot going for it.The basement kitchen. For starters, it sits on a rare double lot and boasts a finished basement with a separate entrance, second...

13 h. ago These Ontario beaches are like a Caribbean getaway right in your backyard

Ontario isn't exactly a destination for tropical beaches, but if you search close enough, there are a few locations in the province that can (almost) make you feel like you've been transported to far-off vacation getaways.Tropical escapes sound far-fetched for a part of the world known for harsh winters, but it's true. In fact, just a few hours outside of Toronto, you can find picturesque beaches that boast serene views of crystal-blue waters and offer warm sandy landscapes that rival some destinations down south.The best part is that you only need three things: transportation, your swimsuit, and probably some sunscreen.So, if you're looking for a staycation getaway but don't want to stray far from home, consider some of these beaches for your next summer adventure. Port Dover Perhaps the most tropical of them all, the beachfront in Port Dover appears to have been imported straight from a Caribbean island.

The forecast for the next month of Canada's summer has just landed, and Ontario is in for some scorching temperatures that will be hottest along parts of its southern border.The Weather Network is anticipating the remainder of July to "really live up to its reputation" as the hottest time of year this year, with thermometers surging above normal across most of the country, and well above normal in select areas.The lower halves of Alberta and Saskatchewan — including around Edmonton and Regina — are in for a scorching few weeks, along with a sliver of northwestern Ontario near Thunder Bay and Sault Ste. Marie, and southern Ontario near Windsor.While TWN said in a blog post on Friday that while the heat will largely be focused around the Prairies, "it will shift into Ontario, Quebec and Atlantic Canada at times" in an alternating pattern that'll mean no one in the country will have to bear sky-high temps for to...
