Well, welcome to the end of summer! It’s that time of year we dread all August long, but September rolling in isn’t always the worst thing. Sure, we have to watch the temperatures drop for the next 5-6 months, and the leaves are about to start falling faster than in that Billy Talent song. But […]

Ah, the age-old debate about holiday decorations—when is too early? In Canada, we’ve long respected the unspoken rule of waiting until after Remembrance Day to deck the halls with Christmas cheer.

Just days after a study proudly declared Alberta home to some of the best post-secondary institutions in the country, it seems they’re trying to challenge that title in a rather… unique way. The University of Calgary is diving deep into research to prove that taking poop pills—yes, you read that right—might actually improve your mental […]

Remember when life was so much simpler as a kid? Running around, drinking from the hose, and not having a care in the world?
