The new Toronto sign is in place.

The sign orignally installed as a temporary display for the 2015 Pan-Am games was removed two weeks ago and replaced with a permanent display.

The sign contains a vinyl wrap, which is an art project entitled Patterns of the People, in recognition of the United Nations International Decade for People of African Descent. The wrap will be refreshed once every 12 months, and will be used to promote events, projects and City priorities.

This new installation also has better lighting capabilities and is more durable than the original. The sign was lit up gold last night after the outstanding Emmy night for Canadian show Schitt’s Creek.

It’s located at Nathan Phillips Square.


Nearly three years after Gord Downie’s death, a new double album of solo material will be released next month.

Away is mine will be available everywhere October 16th.


Gucci is selling pairs of denim overalls for $1,400 and the overalls come with grass stains.

Yes, they’re pre-stained.

But they aren’t even stained with actual grass. Gucci is just using a special treatment to make it look that way.

Imagine being so rich, you paid to make it look like you worked?!
