Keeping an eye on gas prices has never been anyone’s idea of a good time, but it looks like things are about to get a little less painful at the pump. Experts are predicting a slight dip in gas prices just in time for the weekend. Sure, it’s not a long weekend or anything special, […]

While we Canadians have plenty to be proud of, it turns out we might need to wash our mouths out with soap—seriously. A recent ranking put Canada at 5th in the world for swearing. Yep, we’re up there with the best (or worst?) of them. Honestly, it makes sense. Between skyrocketing prices, terrible roads, and […]

As the weekend approaches and many of us gear up for 48 blissful hours away from work, the real question is: what aren’t you going to do? According to studies, the average Canadian needs around 60 lazy days a year to feel truly rested and recovered. And honestly, who can argue with that? Those glorious […]

As much as we’ll all collectively complain about social media, it seems Canadians have something they hate even more. A new study has determined that the most hated app in Canada is none other than the dating and hookup app Tinder. Personally, I can’t criticize it too much because it confirmed my belief that my […]

In what might be the saddest news of the year, it seems we’re all at least a little depressed… Or at least that’s what representatives of the world’s largest champagne companies believe, as their sales are at an all-time low!

Well, we’ve finally made it to August, which is a really interesting time of year in many ways. It’s when people try their hardest to get outside and enjoy the last real month of summer. Then, it’s those same people who’ll fight to get back indoors and complain about how hot it is. And let’s […]

There aren’t many times when I’m the one to say, “think of the kids,” but I had a change of heart at the mall recently. Usually, I’m all for kids learning things early on, but then I saw a store already putting up back-to-school sale signs… before the start of August! These poor kids get […]

Even though Halloween is still basically three months away, there’s already some scary news out there—and not the fun, spooky kind. Hershey’s CEO has announced that they’re bracing for a candy shortage! With a number of ingredients getting more expensive, we could see this issue spreading to other candy companies as well. There have been […]

We’ve always known it, but a little extra vindication never hurts—Canadians are generous, possibly to a fault. We’re tied for first in the world when it comes to tipping. On average, we tip anywhere from 15-20% on anything from food to haircuts and even oil changes! No wonder so many of us are trying to […]
