The mother of a Toronto-area girl who walked away from a terrifying road incident physically unharmed is urging motorists to be more cautious around school buses and areas where children are at play. Ten-year-old Rebecca Hillier got off her school bus with her peers on a residential road in Pickering, ON.
Security camera video from a nearby home shows a number of children crossing the road after disembarking. The bus driver then deactivates the stop sign and guard rail on the side of the vehicle, seconds before the girl steps onto the road.

International travel to Canada has jumped sharply in 2016 thanks to a strong summer in the tourism sector, but the volume of visitors has still not reached the levels it hit 15 years ago.
Figures recently released by Statistics Canada show that just more than 14 million tourists came to Canada in the first eight months of this year, up more than 10 per cent from 2015. But the numbers are still not where they were in 2001, when about 14.8 million travellers came here.

Hamilton Spectator
Much has been written and talked about recently in the media around the shortage of drivers in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area, and the impact on families who lack reliable busing. Armchair quarterbacks cast blame, each weighing in on an industry normally taken for granted until crisis strikes. I can assure you that many parents can't tell you anything about their school bus driver, their child's bus route, or which company is responsible.

There comes a time in the life of every major city where one must look ahead and envision where we want to be in the decades ahead — how will we achieve future prosperity and a greater quality of life for our children, for youth, and for all the citizens of Toronto, Ontario, and Canada.
We have a unique opportunity to start building the Toronto of the future in the heart of what is now the last development challenge we face as a city. This is a key reason why I support efforts to further explore a Toronto bid for Expo 2025.
