5 h. ago Dodgers star gets booed out of Toronto kids hospital in hilarious new commercial

Toronto Blue Jays fans don't appear to have forgiven the Los Angeles Dodgers just yet – even if it's for a good cause.The Dodgers, as you surely know by now, broke just about all of Canada's collective hearts last month when they topped the Blue Jays in an epic seven-game World Series.And one of the heroes for the Dodgers in that series was Freddie Freeman, hitting a walk-off home run in the bottom of the 18th inning of a long Game 3.Given that Freeman represents Canada internationally in baseball due to his Canadian parents' roots, he'd usually be a natural pick for many Canadian commercials.But in a recent holiday spot for SickKids hospital (alongside none other than Ryan Reynolds), Freeman didn't exactly get the warmest of receptions.Rub some dirt on it @FreddieFreeman5! And thank you for being such a good sport supporting @sickkids. Everyone who can, please donate before December 24th and all donations will be matched up to $1,000,000. pic.twitter.c...

7 h. ago Toronto's brutal traffic among world's worst but not as bad as other city in Canada

To the surprise of probably no one, Toronto was yet again called out for its terrible traffic in a new global traffic ranking.The 2025 Global Traffic Scorecard by Inrix ranked the world's worst cities for traffic congestion. Toronto made the list but – fortunately? – it's not as high as you think.According to the report, Toronto took the 34th spot, which could be worse but could also be better. Even U.S. tourists are appalled by our traffic, calling it worse than Los Angeles or India. Ouch. Celebrities constantly call out local gridlock, too. But given the frequency of highway closures and lane restrictions, can we blame them?Alas, it appears our gridlock issues aren't as bad as Montreal's, as the report indicates that the Quebec metropolis has the worst traffic congestion of any other city in Canada. Overall, it ranks as the 28th worst city in the world.  Using three years of transportation data, the report looks at travel times betwe...
