Your morning news roundup for Wednesday, October 27, 2006

Now Magazine's annual Best of Toronto awards came out yesterday. Guess who won best blog!

The Toronto Maple Leafs will screen seven games in 25 movie theatres across Ontario starting this Thursday. Not that we need to see a 5-0 loss on any bigger of a screen.

The TTC has decided to finally join the party and show wait times at bus and streetcar stops.

Another day, another drug bust. This time, at a church.

The Toronto Coalition for Active Transportation (TCAT for short) has released their survey of Mayor and City Council candidates. See how your ward is stacking up.

Today is also Bike Friday.

Congrats on the best blog from NOW! It is well deserved. I watched you guys right from the very beginning, and even contributed a few posts back in the day. But this is not about me. It's about you. You've made daddy very proud. Great job Tim!

Thanks for the BikeFriday love. :) We had a lot of events this morning, but don't forget that tonight is the Hallowe'en Edition of Critical Mass! Join a ton of Toronto cyclists in riding in a group around downtown tonight - at the same time as cyclists in over 400 cities around the world! Feel free to dress up - it's lots of fun! We meet at 6 and ride at 6:30 from the southeast corner of Bloor & Spadina. I'll be the skeleton in blue bike clothes. :)
