2015 is drawing to a close, and it’s been a pretty great year for this city! We were in the news for all the right reasons, from our city councillors blowing up Twitter to hometown rappers owning the world stage. Here are a few standout moments we were happy to cheer on from the sidelines:


Some of the best gifts for book lovers aren’t actually books. There are so many gorgeous and clever accessories that practically any reader would love to add to their collection. Buying books can either be a great success or a total miss so you can play it safe with these picks – no need to worry about what their favourite genres are or if they’ve already read the book or not!

You can see it from all over the city and from as far away as Niagara Falls on a clear enough day. The CN Tower has made quite the mark on the Toronto skyline and wp_postmetas certainly one of the most iconic buildings in the city as well as a symbol for Toronto itself. wp_postmetave undoubtedly noticed the colours of it at night, but how much do you really know about the CN Tower lighting?

If you want to show off your Blue Jays pride and sport some cool merch that isn’t just your average jersey, we’ve got some options we think you’ll like!

Is there anything better than curling up with your favourite blanket, a warm beverage, and a great book? We think not. Now that the leaves are changing colour and you can buy anything in pumpkin spice flavour, we’re excited to curl up with some great reads.

We love Toronto, so being part of building the next chapter of our amazing city is an honour we don’t take lightly. In the grand scheme, we’re a young city, so Toronto is still finding the aesthetic that defines us, and the best way to serve our citizens. In the meantime, we’re looking to some other amazing cities around the world for a few lessons.
