    Sunday Morning Breakfast

    Hopefully they get this sorted out soon. I did see other Kellogg's cereals though (Fruit loops, Corn Pops, Frosted Flakes, Sugar Crisp ...etc). I didn't see any Sugar Smacks. Come to think of it, I didn't even see any Apple Jacks cereal. Looks like not all of the Kellogg's cereal brands were...

    Sunday Morning Breakfast

    I assume most of you folks reading this thread by now are fully aware that French was used as the primary language during the opening ceremonies. English was second. This is a complete outrage. The language of the majority in Canada is English, not French. What were the Olympic Committee...

    It doesn't really surprise me that this fellow was unfortunate enough to find ants in his food at a McDonald's restaurant as it can happen at any fast food joint. I myself have not set foot inside a McDonald's for many years now. I do eat fast food on average twice a week, but not at...

    Name your favourite restaurant

    I can't decide between The Elephant bar and Claim Jumper. Both are excellent restaurants where you can take family and friends and have a great time. The Elephant Bar has a bit of everything on the menu, same as Claim Jumper, but Claim Jumper is also noted for it's ribs.

    No Appeal in Aquital of First Degree Murder of Laval Police Officer

    I'm very disappointed that the Crown did not appeal the not guilty verdict. Initially when this individual was acquitted, I was quite upset, both with the prosecutors for not providing a strong enough case and with the jury members for letting a cop killer go free. This guy was found to have...
