Toronto wants to save more trees by tightening up some of the city bylaws.

Toronto’s Board of Health is looking to push for increased funding of their student nutrition program after hearing success stories from city schools.

The city of Toronto has not ruled out the bidding for the 2025 World Expo.

During a meeting at City Hall on Monday, the Economic Development Committee defeated a motion, 3-2, introduced by Coun. Michael Thompson (Ward 37 Scarborough Centre) to defer the item indefinitely. The matter will now be brought before city council, which will decide if the city should spend an estimated $1 million for a pre-bid analysis

In a big room with wooden floors at the Toronto Harbourfront Centre, people are waiting in line to get their chance to pick up some real Swedish food. Over someone’s shoulder, I see all the things I love from home. There’s the round crisp bread, the chocolate Plopp and, of course, the Swedish coffee Zoegas. A woman, wearing a red apron and Santa hat, tells me it will be at least another hour before I can get in line. I decide it’s not worth it and instead I head for the meatballs in the next room over.
