Did anyone else feel like they got bamboozled Friday night by that Netflix boxing match? I mean, where do we even start? The stream was spotty, buffering more than a bad YouTube video from 2007. Then there was Mike Tyson—legend that he is—deciding to give us more than we bargained for with an unexpected view […]

It’s a big weekend for Canadians as the Grey Cup kicks off on Sunday night. The question is: will you be watching? Even without my beloved Saskatchewan Roughriders in the game, I’ll have it on. The Grey Cup almost always delivers a solid game, and hey, it’s tradition. But not everyone shares the same enthusiasm. […]

This morning, let’s take a second to acknowledge a special crew of folks who might be struggling already: retail workers. My wife and I hit the mall over the weekend, and between the endless Christmas music and stressed-out employees, it was like walking into a holiday war zone. Three different stores were blasting only holiday […]

Looking at what kids today are into, it’s pretty wild to think about how different things were when we grew up. But in Australia, they’re trying to bring back a bit of that old-school vibe. They’re banning social media for anyone under 16—yup, that’s Facebook, Twitter, TikTok, even YouTube. The goal? Let kids actually be […]

Ever feel like you’re burning out from work? Apparently, we’re not just imagining it here in Alberta. A recent study found that Alberta ranks fourth among Canada’s most overworked provinces—higher than BC, Ontario, and Quebec. What does this mean for us? Probably not much, unfortunately. There’s no promise of extra vacation days or well-deserved raises. […]

Today is a big day for our American neighbors, as they head to the polls to vote on the issues that matter most to them. But while we aren’t voting for our own leader, we could use this opportunity to settle some of our own deeply divisive questions! What if, the next time we vote, […]

It may still be seven weeks away, but if you’re traveling for the holidays, now’s the time to start planning… According to travel agency CheapAir, the best time to head out for Christmas to avoid sky-high prices is no later than December 18th. Sure, you might save some money, but spending a whole week out […]

Why do adults get so pumped about counting trick-or-treaters? It’s like we’re all suddenly conducting an unofficial neighborhood census. I remember when the only numbers I kept track of were from a different kind of night out—usually the sad tally of phone numbers (or lack thereof) from a night at the bar. Spoiler alert: I […]

Halloween is just around the corner, and as a seasoned candy collector, I’ve got a tip or two to share with the younger crowd. You’ll know the houses I’m talking about—the ones that hand out full-size chocolate bars and, if you’re really lucky, cans of pop. These gems are known as “honey holes,” and trust […]
