5 h. ago Invasive plant is taking over Ontario but you can help by killing and eating it

The arrival of warm weather has many Ontario residents thinking about gardening season, but your outdoor spaces may already be harbouring a dangerous invasive species known as garlic mustard (Alliaria petiolata).But, while this species is capable of choking out native plant life and causing widespread ecological damage, you can do your part by incorporating invasive garlic mustard into a tasty dish.People will say you can't make your problems go away by shoveling in more calories, but this might actually be one instance of a problem we can literally eat our way to fixing.What is garlic mustard and how did it get here?As its name suggests, the plant is an edible herb that offers up a distinctive smell similar to garlic when crushed, though it was this very culinary use that directly led to the havoc this invasive weed is now wreaking on Ontario's natural ecosystems.First introduced to North America from Europe in the 1800s, the plant quickly made the leap from garden pots to the wild...

5 h. ago Here's how many Tesla Cybertrucks were sold in Canada before massive recall

Transport Canada finally acknowledged the Tesla Cybertuck recall, and through it, we've learned that Elon Musk's boxy truck hasn't sold that well in Canada.The recall notice mentions that 1,995 Cybertrucks have been affected, so there is a slim chance that Tesla has sold six more to get over the 2,000 unit hump since the end of February when this recall was first issued. Tesla's website says that all trucks manufactured between Nov 13, 2024, and Feb 27, 2025, are part of the recall.In case you missed it, the American auto company needed to recall all the Cybertrucks because it glued on portions of the metal trim. The glue was failing, resulting in the trim coming off. Tesla is replacing the glue with a stronger adhesive and a couple of screws, so the problem is easily fixable.In the U.S., Tesla recalled 46,000 Cybertrucks, so it does appear to be selling better down south. In Canada, it costs $114,000 or more, depending on the trim options.In other Tesla news,&nb...
