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 […]

Fall is prime time for eating… a lot. Between Thanksgiving leftovers, holiday parties, and the ahem bag of Halloween candy, we’re all feeling a little extra. But now, health influencers are chiming in with an unexpected suggestion to help keep our bodies in check: sauerkraut. Apparently, sauerkraut is good for digestion, immune health, and even […]

Let’s talk about marriage, the supposed fairytale with happy endings. Don’t get me wrong—my wife is amazing, and I love her, but after a year and a half of wedded bliss, the honeymoon phase is… let’s just say it’s changed. Take last night, for example. I was doing my part and cleaning the bathroom when […]

We joked before the weekend that Halloween’s technically for the kids, but the weekend was for us adults to get in on the fun. So, a few friends and I decided to hit the town and, you know… stay out a little too long. Cheap, overly sweet shots were on special — which seemed like […]

What’s the first candy you’re sneaking from your kid’s trick-or-treat stash? Whether it’s for you or not, dentists suggest you might want to nab a few specific ones out first — at least to save those teeth! They’re warning against handing over hard candies like Jolly Ranchers or Life Savers, since they’re prime suspects for […]

As someone who’s spent countless hours at Centerfire Place watching Oil Barons games, I’ve seen my share of hockey penalties. But one man might have just created a new one. In Ottawa, a 25-year-old Zamboni operator was arrested for DUI while resurfacing the ice after a game. Is this a first? Maybe! Alberta once had […]

A new study has dived into a potentially uncomfortable topic—our biggest regrets. It turns out, I’m not the only one lying awake at night replaying embarrassing moments. The study even pinpointed that the average millennial’s biggest regret happened exactly 11 years ago. For boomers, it’s a bit more spread out, with regrets hitting around 30 […]

After heavy snowfall hit much of the province, the RCMP is reminding drivers to stay safe on the roads. Even though a warm-up is on the way, they’re taking the opportunity to share important safety tips early. They advise drivers to plan for extra travel time, keep an emergency kit in the car, and leave […]

The Canadian government is preparing to make a move that might ruffle some feathers. This especially for a few folks in our lives. They’re expected to announce the removal of most flavoured vapes. It’s just like their past crackdown on flavoured tobacco. Now, while the government probably has good intentions here, you just know this […]
