A body that was discovered in 1968 north of Toronto has been identified as a 17-year-old New Brunswick teen. Richard Hovey moved here to take part in Toronto's thriving counterculture scene but sadly met a tragic end. Shaun Bruce, the 22-year-old that ran against David Miller, is back at this old job as a zamboni driver. No word on where Jane Pitfield and Stephen LeDrew are now, and do we really care? There's an old......

Windy enough for ya? Those heavy gusts that left you scrambling for your scarves yesterday also knocked out power to some of Toronto's east end, and much of Atlantic Canada and Quebec. Michael Ignatieff isn't the only local politician using the internet to reach younger voters. Mayoral candidates David Miller, Jane Pitfield and Stephen LeDrew are hoping to YouTube themselves into City Hall by releasing campaign videos on the popular website. How are the candidates......

Today's topic in The Star's increasingly mundane "20 Questions" feature - where they ask the three biggest mayoral candidates questions about a whole plethora of subjects - was Favourite Movies.

We think the Sun's headline spells it out best "Recycling now 4 times the fun." Who could hate that? The OPP raid biker gang strongholds all over the province, including a chapter of the Vagabonds here in Toronto. They found guns and meth labs. 500 police officers were involved in the......
