9 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...

Can you believe a downtown Toronto house once sold for just $64,000?That's exactly what Gerry Gold paid for 6 Prospect St., a charming central Cabbagetown Victorian, back in 1978."I bought this house in 1978 and have been living here ever since," Gold told blogTO.  "Now that I'm in retirement, I'm planning to move to Delta Road Cottage," a renowned project he completed about 12 years ago with the help of Teeple Architects.The front entrance. For architecture fans, Teeple Architects' portfolio is mostly academic institutional projects and multi-family residential projects, but Delta Road Cottage shows the firm's genius with smaller-scaled projects, and if you haven't seen it, it's worth a Google.A stained glass transom and exposed brick walls add character to the main floor. Back on Prospect Street, the home itself is a treasure trove of classic character.The main floor of the house. Listing agent...

22 h. ago Toronto Raptors just ended LeBron James' most unbreakable NBA streak

If you were lucky enough to be in attendance for the Toronto Raptors game against the Los Angeles Lakers game on Thursday night, it turns out that you were witnessing NBA history.Not only was it potentially LeBron James’ last-ever game playing at Scotiabank Arena, but it was actually historic for another reason for the four-time NBA MVP and NBA’s all-time leading scorer.James was held to just eight points on the night, one of the rarest feats of his legendary career.The last time James didn’t score at least 10 points in a regular season game was nearly 19 years ago – against the Milwaukee Bucks on January 5, 2007.That’s a streak of 1,297 games in a row, 431 more than Michael Jordan’s mark of 866, which sits second in NBA history.But the streak ended for a pretty decent reason for the Lakers’ side of things – James wasn’t exactly having his best shooting night, and opted to pass the ball to teammate Rui Hachimura on an eventual bu...
