RIP Marcel Marceau, Tory Wants More Booze In Stores, And The FC Scored A Goal (Really)

By Christopher Bird

John Tory wants to let corner stores sell booze. He says local brewers and vintners are getting a raw deal, and he’s got a point. After all, when you go into your local corner store, think of the wealth of independent chocolatiers you have to pick from when you want a candy bar!
George W. Bush shuns global warming summit. In other news, sky still blue.
Statistics Canada finds out that rich Canadians are getting richer while everybody else mostly stays in the same place. This continues a proud tradition of StatsCan being five years behind what everybody else had already figured out.
And Toronto FC finally scored a goal! They didn’t win the game, but, you know, baby steps.

    As an American, I’ve tried to apologize to the rest of the world for GW Bush. Even though I never voted for him. But it’s just become such a full time job that I’ve given up. He’s an idiot and there just seems to be NOTHING that can be done to stop him. Next stop: Iran.
    Marcel Marceau: movie idea. A guy is trying to make it as a mime, he is first inspired my Marceau, but he then becomes his nemesis because people keep telling him he’s good, but he’s no Marceau. Who will be the next Marceau? Of course, there will be a brief cameo by Shields and Yarnell. Silent film…of course.
