4 h. ago Toronto's first pet funeral home offers unique way to say goodbye

On top of the agonizing, can't-eat, can't-sleep grief that comes with losing a beloved pet, trying to navigate the next steps only deepens the sorrow. A newly opened pet funeral home, the first in Toronto, hopes to guide owners through their final goodbyes.At 115 Berkley St. in Moss Park is where you can find Tails Farewell's newest location – second to the one they first opened in Markham back in September 2024. Co-owner Jason Lau tells blogTO that the Markham space only has one memorial room, which limits the number of families they can serve. Now, with their new downtown location, they have more rooms to accommodate more people planning pet funerals.So far, Lau says, Tails Farewell has supported more than 500 pet families, including a virtual memorial for a 2-year-old python and a funeral for an 80-year-old woman's bunny, who we're certain lived a hoppy life. "Our goal is to create a warm and peaceful environment so families, esp...

6 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...

17 h. ago This queer Toronto barbershop is changing lives one haircut at a time

In a humble, single-chair barbershop on Toronto's Danforth Avenue, haircuts are becoming moments of personal affirmation for queer and transgender clients. The Queer Barber is a QTBIPOC-owned (acronym for Queer, Trans, Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour) barbershop founded in 2022 by E (who uses all pronouns). The space was created with the singular purpose of offering gender-affirming haircuts in an environment where QTBIPOC and 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals can simply exist without explanation or fear of being misread. "I wanted to create the kind of space I never saw in the industry. One where queer, trans, and QTBIPOC people could walk in without bracing themselves," E told blogTO, whose background consists of barbering, psychology, community care, and now social work. The shop owner is currently completing their Master of Social Work at the University of Toronto, and says everything they're learning, from trauma-informed p...
