85 m. ago How being mistaken for a celebrity's sister helped a Toronto woman find love

For Toronto-based photographer Whitney Heard, a bizarre case of mistaken identity led to unexpected attention, and eventually, a relationship that changed her life.It all began in 2017, when Whitney, who shares a name with Amber Heard's actual sister, started receiving fan mail intended for the actress.At first, it was innocent enough, but as the highly publicized defamation trial between Amber Heard and her ex-husband Johnny Depp unfolded from April 11 to June 1, 2022, things took a bit of a turn, and Whitney found herself at the centre of an online storm."I started getting spam emails, DMs, comments, and even phone calls," Heard told blogTO back in 2022. "I had to turn off my work phone."Despite repeatedly posting that she wasn’t related to Amber Heard, nor did she even have a sister, the Internet wouldn't let up. However, just a few years later, something unexpectedly beautiful came out of it all. Three years ago, Whitney was featured i...

2 h. ago Toronto neighbourhood wants their garbage day changed so people can party more

One Toronto neighbourhood is appealing to the City for a change in garbage day, arguing that the presence of loaded bins is hindering the vibes for its end-of-week party crowd.If any neighbourhood in the city could possibly get away with fighting for a change in garbage day to better support partying, it would be Ossington, and, according to a motion set to go before City Council later this week, that's exactly what they're doing."As we approach the patio season, the busiest evenings for hospitality and retail services in the west-end areas of Ossington, Queen West, and College Promenade are Thursday through Saturday," the agenda item opens.Currently, however, the neighbourhood's garbage day coincides with the peak period on Thursday evenings, "which has been identified as a less-than-ideal time for both residents and businesses," it goes on to say.A letter from Meg Marshall, the manager of the Ossington BIA, argues that not only do garbage ...

A large void is being carved out below a major Toronto intersection traversed by thousands every day, and few people passing overhead have any idea that a huge cave lurks below as part of the push to build the new $27 billion Ontario Line.When it opens to the public in 2031, the new 15-station, 15.6-kilometre transit line will relieve existing subway interchanges by providing a route between Exhibition Place and the shuttered Ontario Science Centre.That route includes a tunnelled stretch through the heart of downtown Toronto, requiring deep underground excavations at station sites in preparation for the arrival of tunnel boring machines.The future Ontario Line Queen-Spadina subway station will be one of the stations requiring the excavation of "caverns" deep below street-level, and Metrolinx has provided an update on the major operation hidden out of sight underground.The transit agency shared new photos celebrating "a big month underground" in February, noting t...

4 h. ago There's a secret hack for getting Toronto Maple Leafs playoffs tickets for cheap

Any Toronto Maple Leafs fan who lives close enough to Scotiabank Arena has probably complained at least once in their lifetime about the high ticket prices, particularly in the playoffs.Looking at the resale market for playoff tickets for this year, whether you were looking to see the team in Toronto or Ottawa, you couldn't get in for a price cheaper than at least $300 or so.But if you are willing to be a little bit patient, things might just swing in your favour — and save you a few bucks toward finding your way into the building.During Sunday night's Game 1 against the Ottawa Senators, prices showed for as little as $151 on StubHub in the minutes after puck drop during the opening frame.If you waited until the end of the first period, the cheapest price for a standing room ticket in the upper deck had gone down to $85 at 7:48 p.m. By 8:14 p.m., those same tickets had dropped to $83, and at 8:18 p.m., they'd been put up at $67, perhaps uncanny ...
