Speaking of buses, the Ride CK Beach Bus is no longer in operation. It was removed from the budget in 2019. The Beach Bus would get riders to Erieau and Mitchell’s Bay over the weekends in the Summer.
In September, electric vehicle owners will pay less to cross at the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel.
The tunnel wants to support all of the new initiatives in the region.
The tunnel will offer a25 cent discount. Regular price to cross for non-commercial vehicles from Windsor to Detroit is CDN$6.50 or US$5.
The Stanley Cup Final is set.
The 2 time defending champion Tampa Bay Lightning will play the Colorado Avalanche.
Game 1 will be in Denver on Wednesday. Every game will be on Sportsnet and CBC.
Wednesday, June 15: 8pm Tampa Bay at Colorado
Saturday, June 18: 8pm Tampa Bay at Colorado
Monday, June 20: 8pm Colorado at Tampa Bay
Wednesday, June 22: 8pm Colorado at Tampa Bay
*Friday, June 24: 8pm Tampa Bay at Colorado
*Sunday, June 26: 8pm Colorado at Tampa Bay
*Tuesday, June 28: 8pm Tampa Bay at Colorado
*if necessary
How’s this for a random “stat”: Lightning vs Avalanche is the first Stanley Cup Final to feature two teams that don’t end in the letter “S”. It’s just the second time it has ever happened in the four major sports (football, baseball, basketball and hockey) Oklahoma Thunder vs the Miami Heat in the 2012 NBA Finals.
