Le gouvernement Ford prévoit une nouvelle présence de la police provinciale à Ontario Place, suscitant des préoccupations concernant l'accès public et la sécurité. Au fur et à mesure que les discussions avancent, votre voix compte — que pensez-vous de cette mesure ? Un tragique incendie domestique à Toronto a laissé la communauté en deuil. Un homme est mort après avoir été sauvé de sa maison jeudi soir. Bien que cela rappelle l'importance de la sécurité incendie, cet incident souligne également l'importance de veiller les uns sur les autres. Jamison Battle a eu le quatrième quart parfait pour les Raptors ! Il a marqué 14 de ses points à un moment clé, prouvant que chaque joueur peut briller dans les grands matchs.
