Bondi Beach This was always inevitable to those of us paying attention. And mark my words, It is only a matter of time before it happens here in Canada. I recently had a discussion with someone about moving to Israel, and they mentioned – they look at the math and never feel compelled to move […]

Be It Resolved Israel and Palestine is a radioactive topic, and I want to be sure I’m hitting it with grace and empathy. So I want to acknowledge before we get into it that I come at this topic with a heavy bias. I am heavily involved with the Jewish community in Toronto and seemingly

After my last article, a few friends in the industry nudged me with a simple challenge: “Okay, we understand the problems. But what are we actually going to do about housing in Toronto and the GTA?” It’s a fair question. So in order to answer it, we’ve started a living list of practical ideas to

A Bad Deal I was lucky enough to purchase a home last week. It didn’t come easy. Nothing does in Canada’s biggest city. I’ve been working full-time for fifteen years, sometimes with multiple jobs at once. I started a business to try and get ahead. My girlfriend went through law school, hustled, and has been

I’d had a lot of odd jobs: working for my fraternity, doing contract shifts at the LCBO, and even delivering fish. I was rudderless, jumping around, trying to figure out what I wanted, and mostly failing. I had

Listen here, or read below This past Wednesday, Prime Minister Mark Carney made a speech to Canadians in primetime. This was noteworthy as these 7:30 PM addresses are not at all a common occurrence. Prime ministers only make these kinds of addresses every few years, so it was theorized that there would be a significant

Listen here, or read below There is much ado about the secondary ticket market this week. Resale prices for the Blue Jays are skyrocketing ahead of the World Series. There are many screenshots of $10,000 tickets popping up on my socials. The reality however is that most people have no understanding of the ticketing ecosystem.

For younger millenials and Gen Zs it’s the first time that they’re witnessing the Blue Jays go to the World Series. It’s been thirty two years. Our parent’s generation told stories about the out of body experiences of watching Carter’s home run go over the fence. There were echoes of it in 2015 & 2016,
