The world comes to life in May, at least in our chilly northern climate.

16 h. ago Toronto's artificial peninsula set to keep growing for decades

Toronto's man-made peninsula, the Leslie Street Spit, is still growing, and will be for the next few decades to come as dredged material from the city's harbour continues to be deposited along its shoreline.Created in 1959 by the Toronto Harbour Commissioners (THC), now PortsToronto, for "port-related facilities," the Leslie Street Spit's expected use as an outer harbour port never panned out, yet the landform has expanded significantly through millions of cubic metres of concrete, earth fill, and dredged sand, and today supports Tommy Thompson Park.The artificial peninsula extends five kilometres into Lake Ontario and is over 500 hectares in size. The park is home to some of the largest existing natural habitats on the Toronto waterfront, and includes wildflower meadows, cottonwood forests, cobble beaches, and coastal marshes.Aerial view of the Leslie Street Spit in 1975.

16 h. ago Trippy Ontario house that looks like a 1970s time capsule is going for $4.5M

It may be 2025, but stepping into 6800 Second Line W. in Mississauga feels like falling headfirst into a lava lamp.This trippy time capsule appears to have been pulled straight from 1970, complete with psychedelic wallpaper.We're talking zigzag patterns that make the walls look like they're melting, linoleum tiles so loud they practically scream, and a wood-panelled basement rec room that looks ready to host a Bee Gees listening party.The foyer. This home has never been on the market before, so it's no surprise it's in need of some serious modernization.The dining room. But if you can see past the retro riot of textures and colours, there's actually a ton of potential here.The land. Not only does the home offer four bedrooms and four bathrooms, but it sits on nearly an acre of land.So much room for activities. According to the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation, half of that could be subdivided into two separate lots, each measuring a s...

16 h. ago This Ontario wellness retreat has you staying in a tiny box in the middle of the woods

This secluded wellness retreat in Ontario is perhaps the most serene way to reconnect with nature without sacrificing on luxury.Wellness may be the buzzword to end all buzzwords in 2025, being co-opted by everything from luxury clubs offering some seriously Cronenbergian-sounding services to cold plunge camps that encourage you to take a dip in frozen lakes, but it's not without reason.In 2025, when the world seems to be careening ever deeper into utter chaos, the notion that there are concrete steps (that can come in varying degrees of scientific complexity) we can take to support our own — say it with me — wellness, is a comfort.It's a small way to feel in control of an otherwise out-of-control period in human history.But that's not why I called you here. I only bring it up because Garth and Rebecca Bigelow, who own Muskoka-based vacation rental venture Unique Stays, have found a similar sense of peace in the whole 'wellness' thing, a...

25 h. ago Toronto cafe that abruptly closed down is reopening under new ownership

An indie coffee shop on one of Toronto's busiest streets for foot traffic has triumphantly reopened after a sudden closure that many feared would be its ultimate end after close to a decade serving the community.HotBlack Coffee has been serving up third-wave espresso drinks alongside a curated selection of local wines, merchandise, baked goods and other snacks near Queen Street and University Avenue since 2016, when it debuted with a fancy under-counter espresso machine, reverse-osmosis water filter and more in a polished space.But at the end of March, the Entertainment District staple abruptly locked its doors, posting a notice of an indefinite closure in its windows and on social media."Ever since the owner, Jimson, passed away, the company has sort of been sailing blindfolded in the middle of the ocean, mainly because [of] legal issues. This has to be sorted in the right way, and we figured the only choice is to end this chapter," staff wrote sho...
