Tiffany Gates and a man were found dead in an apartment on Proudfoot Lane in September. Police said both died of gunshot wounds and that they were known to each other but Gates's mother Linda Davidson said police need to release more information in order to help protect other women from intimate partner violence.

Three months after her daughter was found shot dead, Linda Davidson has a long list of questions with no easy route to the answers.

London will begin a Green Bin program the week of January 15, 2024.

A Green Bin is like a blue (recycling) bin, but for food waste such as fruit and vegetable skins, meat and chicken, spoiled leftovers, and other inedible food waste like bones. The Green Bin would be collected from your home at the curbside much like your Blue Box is.

(The green bins were delivered in my area (Hyde Park) this week.)

People act like Riverside is this super dangerous street because there's always accidents/fatalities on it. What people don't really appreciate is how many drivers on London roads are drunk at any given time. Also, Riverside is basically one long straight race track with one 90 degree turn. Drunks love driving on Riverside.

Truth is, you could add traffic calming measures, but the city does sometimes just randomly remove its own infrastructure because we love wasting money.

Does anyone know what's going on at 546 Dundas street? It seems empty but a large banner that reads "Gotta Catch 'Em All" was recently installed on the front.

I go by there every day and nothing seems to change, other than the new banner.
