The Blenheim Kinsmen Santa Claus parade is tonight at 7.

It starts from Harwich Raleigh Public School, heads north on Chatham Street, west on Talbot (downtown) and south on Marlborough to Stanley St.

Santa’s right back to work tomorrow, visiting Wheatley at 6.

Next weekend is the Ridgetown Kiwanis Christmas Parade and Dresden Santa Claus Parade on Saturday.


Canada lost its last game at the World Cup 2-1 to Morocco.

Canada ends the tournament 0-3, one of only two teams without a result; the other was Qatar, the host nation.

Canada is still looking for its first ever World Cup win. 0-6 in World Cup play, the only other appearance back in 1986.

Canada is done, but the games will continue on CTV and TSN.


The Sons of Kent Christmas Market is tomorrow.

Shop from over +35 local vendors and enjoy a petting zoo, hot apple cider, beer, coffee, Smashburger and Santa Claus!

The whole family is welcome Saturday from 2-8pm.


Hot Pockets have created a pair of cargo shorts with an actual hot pocket.

The insulated pockets are specifically for transporting heated Hot Pockets.

At first glance, they’re normal, beige cargo shorts, but they have a cargo pocket on one thigh labeled “hot” with the message, “insert sandwich here.” The pocket on the other side is labeled “cold.” The front also has a graphic of a devil that says, “stay heated.”

The limited-edition shorts will go on sale on December 12th, on the Hot Pockets online shop.

There’s no word on a price yet, but the shorts will come with one coupon redeemable for Hot Pockets. There’s also a matching hoodie, but it does not include an actual hot pocket.
