Though he never has suited up for the Toronto Raptors in his 17-year pro career, Kevin Durant has had quite the connection to Canada's lone NBA franchise.In 2014, team ambassador Drake got fined for trying to recruit Durant to Toronto while the NBA star was in attendance at his OVO Fest concert in the city.In 2019, Durant and his Golden State Warriors side faced off against Toronto in the NBA Finals, where he suffered a season-ending injury during Game 5 that ended up sidelining him for the following season.Despite the bad memory of the injury — and an often-referenced clip of fans cheering after Durant hit the floor before the severity was recognized — Durant has often referenced the energy he felt in the city during that series.And in 2022, while he was a member of the Brooklyn Nets, Durant was heavily linked to a possible trade to the Raptors before eventually being shipped to the Phoenix Suns.But Durant's connections to Toronto actually run much longer than...

One wouldn't think that Canada's largest city would end up debilitated for weeks because of a few hits of snow in the middle of winter, but here we are, with the City of Toronto's cleanup efforts set to take a few weeks to complete after back-t0-back storms earlier this month.The wintry precipitation proved to be enough to derail streetcars, halt mail service and close businesses, and even though we haven't seen any substantial accumulation in days, some sidewalks and lanes in the downtown core are still impassable.Navigating the city is one thing, but parking is decidedly more of a disaster, even after the bulk of roadways are looking far clearer than just one week ago.Many side streets have been reduced to just one lane (either total or in each direction), with the others piled too high with snow to traverse, or blocked off by the city for future clearing.For the 55,000+ residents who hold parking permits for these roads, nabbing a spot has become exponent...
