Details are sketchy at this point but an absolutely massive fire at Sunrise Propane near Keele & Wilson is filling the city skies with smoke, ash and just in the past hour, a massive mushroom cloud explosion that rocked the socks off of balcony observers -- see the youtube video footage below and live updates below.

Despite forecasted thunderstorms, thousands showed up for Pride Toronto 2008's Dyke March and Pride Saturday festivities yesterday. Of course, lucky us, the supposed forecast didn't hold true (what else is new?) and the afternoon was sunny and beautiful.

Saturday was a jam packed schedule of incredible concerts, drag royalty, burlesque, dancing and the all-important marching... photo highlights after the jump.

Toronto queer indie darlings, Dance Yourself To Death, are becoming one hot ticket these days, and thanks to hat-trick style gig booking this Pride Week, they're also making it pretty much impossible for you to miss a performance.

Last night, Pride Toronto rolled out the red carpet for their annual Pride Toronto Gala & Awards. The event honours local LGBTQ heroes as well as big name celebrities who've done their part to affect social change.

Thanks to the a few big name attendees and presenters like Sandra Bernhard, the event was very well attended by major media (watch those elbows, Global!), which will hopefully help spread the word about the work being done by many of these honourees...

The 4th Annual "Artwherk!" exhibit is on!

Dedicated to showcasing the work of talented, emerging queer artists, the Artwherk! Collective has once again brought together an inspiring group of people this year. The Pride Week art extravaganza opened last night and runs through til June 30th at Hotshot Gallery .

Just stepping in after a long trek home tonight featuring police tape, shuttle buses and service delays after an all out shoot-out broke out on the subway at Spadina Station.

Holding back on profanity I feel compelled to hurl at the individuals who decided to make a subway car their personal battleground, I'll just share what's being reported right now.

Frequent, packed, shuttle buses are running between St. George & St Clair West station along Spadina & Bathurst St at this hour. CityNews is reporting that "Heavy gunfire erupted on a subway train just after 8pm." No one was killed but a woman was hit in the leg. City is also reporting that one of the suspects is, "a black male in his late teens or early 20s. He's 5'8, with a medium build, wearing a black baseball cap with a jean jacket and jeans."

If you have any information, call Police, post your comments here, and/or speak up.

Update: The National Post is adding a report that this all started with an argument between a two teenaged girls and three teenaged boys who boarded the train at the same time. Out came a knife, then a gun, then a girl in the hospital with, thankfully, non life-threatening injuries. More on that from the Post.

Update 2: The Star checks in with more witness statements.
