Today in Toronto Mixed Company will pair eight notable Canadian actors (including Raymond Ablack - Degrassi: The Next Generation, Orphan Black) with eight notable Canadian improvisers (including Kathy Greenwood - Who's Line is it Anyway, The Drew Carey Show). The fun goes down easy at Comedy Bar.

Set in Memphis Mystery Train (Best Artistic Achievement at the 1989 Festival de Cannes) will screen at TIFF as part of Strange Paradise: The Cinema of Jim Jarmusch. If you'd rather take in some Canadian history with Don Cherry, he'll be at the WWWI 100th Anniversary Ceremony at Black Creek Pioneer Village. Maybe Rob Ford will show up in a pink satin suit? For the pinkos, you know. For more events, click on over to our events section.
