WILL SHANNY BRING THE CUP TO T.O.?
Brendan Shanahan, expected to be named president of the Maple Leafs as soon as Monday, holds the Stanley Cup as a Detroit Red Wing back in 2002, one of his three Cup triumphs with the Wings. The Hall of Famer is expected to finalize a contract with MLSE president Tim Leiweke, who was pushed into action after the Leafs late-season collapse dropped them out of the postseason.

Constituents salute Flaherty Whitby. Ex-finance minister remembered as honest, gregarious man of the people There’s a small grey table in the back corner of T&D Family Restaurant in Whitby where Jim Flaherty loved to eat French fries. “That’s where he’d sit. Right over there,” said Chad Kawasaki, who works at the diner and exudes the same
easy friendliness as most people visiting the two-storey strip mall on Thursday night, where the ex-finance minister had his constituency office. Like most of Flaherty’s constituents, Kawasaki had memories of the man to share. “He’s a great guy. He’s been living in this town most of his life,” said Kawasaki, who last saw Flaherty when he came for a bite last month. “He’d always ask how
you’re doing, and I’m like, ‘You’re asking me that?’ I’d be honoured ... He never treated people on a different level. He treated them equal.” Flaherty died suddenly in Ottawa on Thursday, just weeks after he stepped down as finance minister for the Conservative government. In this town of open fields and clusters of suburban development, flags at half mast fluttered in the gathering wind outside municipal buildings while locals shook
their heads and spoke of the man who’s represented them for nearly 20 years, both at Queen’s Park and in the House of Commons. Flaherty, they say, was the genuine article, the kind of guy who’d keep a nice lawn and stop for a chat about the weather. “It’s just very, very sad,” said Dave Barr, an employee at the MMM Group engineering firm next door to Flaherty’s now-locked up office.

Ford eulogizes
Mayor Rob Ford, a close friend of Flaherty’s, cancelled a press conference and made a brief, emotional statement while his brother Doug stood at his side with tears in his eyes. • “Jim will be remembered as a relentless fighter and a champion of the people,” said the mayor.

Man exposes himself, flees Police say a man who exposed himself to a woman in a park west of Toronto fled after she hit him with her cane. Halton regional police say the woman, who is in her 50s, was walking her dog in the Milton park on Wednesday when a man approached and bent down to pet the dog. It’s alleged that as the man stood up, he exposed himself and performed an indecent act on himself. Police say the woman struck the man with her cane several times, and he fled in a grey, mid-sized car. THE CANADIAN PRESS

Locals hail Eglinton makeover plan Beautification. City has roughly a decade to find $150 million for post-LRT bike lanes, greenery Residents seldom heap praise on city hall. But there were plenty of kudos this week for the city’s plans to beautify Eglinton Avenue after the Eglinton-Scarborough Crosstown LRT opens in 2020, including construction of what would be Toronto’s longest bike lanes. Because the existing bus lanes will no longer be needed, city planners and transportation staff are recommending
that road space be redistributed among buffered sidewalk-height bike lanes, wider sidewalks and more greenery on the 11-kilometre stretch between Black Creek Dr. and Brentcliffe Rd. That’s where the LRT will run in a tunnel under the road. “This will be the longest bike lane in Toronto. A chance to redesign a whole street doesn’t come around very often. This is Toronto’s chance to get it right,” North Toronto Collegiate Institute student Matthew Gerry told council’s public works committee on Wednesday. A report on the vastly revitalized streetscape was quickly approved. The makeover plan goes to council this
spring. One of the few concerns from members of the public who came to speak to the politicians was the $150 million that will be needed in a decade. “We’re addressing the need for funding but it all looks very seat-of-the-pants. Let’s get serious about finding funding sources,” said Coun. John Parker, a member of the works committee. The $150 million in city money won’t be needed until a couple of years after the LRT opens. That’s when the city will fill in the mid-block sections between the stations with larger tree plantings, wider sidewalks, more street furniture and parking lay-bys.

Eight students who witnessed a March shooting at York University have launched a $20.5 million lawsuit against the school. On March 6, Annie Malik, 19, and Namra Malik, 20, (no relation) were injured after a gun accidentally discharged in the food court of the university’s student centre. The other six students are suing for psychological damages following the incident. Annie, a third-year business administration and accounting student was shot in the leg while Namra sustained a shrapnel injury. “We empathize greatly with the survivors who are suffering as a result of this terrible and random criminal activity on our campus,” said York spokesperson Joanne Rider in an email to Torstar News Service.

The plan
If it’s approved, an environmental assessment would go to the province for approval. • Metrolinx is also giving the city $60 million toward public realm improvements, money that will go to enhancements beyond the bare city standards. • That will be split among all the light rail projects the province is funding. About $1.5 million will go toward building larger tree pits for plantings on Eglinton.

Murder suspect charged in two more deaths Crime. Dellen Millard now accused in homicides of his father and Laura Babcock A Toronto man accused of killing a Hamilton father who disappeared after taking a pair of prospective buyers for a test drive has now been charged with murder in the death of his own father and another woman.
Dellen Millard has been charged with first-degree murder in the deaths of Wayne Millard and Laura Babcock, with whom Dellen was romantically linked, Ontario Provincial Police said Thursday. Mark Smich is also charged with first-degree murder in Babcock’s death. Officers have “attended and spoken with the Babcock family,” Toronto police Staff Insp. Greg McLane said. “We’d ask that the victims’ families be afforded privacy
during these very, very difficult times.” Millard’s lawyer, Deepak Paradkar, would not comment on the new charges but said he would “defend the case zealously.” He had previously dismissed any connection between the three cases as speculation. Millard, 28, and Smich, 26, are charged with first-degree murder in the death of Tim Bosma, who vanished May 6, 2013, after leaving home in his pick-up with two men. He had
posted the truck for sale online. Bosma’s remains were found about a week later burned beyond recognition at a southwestern Ontario farm belonging to Millard. Millard is also charged with forcible confinement and theft of a vehicle in Bosma’s death. After Millard’s arrest, Toronto police reopened their investigations into his father’s 2012 death, which had been ruled a suicide, and Babcock’s disappearance, also in 2012. THE CANADIAN PRESS

Pearson vowing changes to severe-weather procedures Pearson International Airport was unprepared for the deep freeze that swept Toronto in January and will make significant changes to its extremeweather operations, the airport’s authority has concluded after a months-long review. But the chair of the board at the Greater Toronto Airports Authority says no one was disciplined for the “ground
stop” that stranded thousands of passengers for days, and denies that the chief executive’s silence for nearly the first three days of the crisis was a mistake. “It’s pretty clear that the management and the other employees at the airport handled the crisis in a safe manner and under the conditions, they did their best,” said board chair Vijay Kanwar in an interview.
“We know that (CEO) Howard Eng was in constant contact with the management team and was fully aware of the situation.” The GTAA released the results Thursday of a review of its severe-weather operations after a ground stop on Jan. 6 halted all North American flights from landing at Pearson for hours. torstar news service

ANDY BYFORD CEO TORONTO TRANSIT COMMISSION
he TTC achieved eight out of nine Customer Charter commitments for the first quarter of 2014, with the hiring of additional Wheel-Trans reservationists slightly behind schedule, but well in-hand. Highlights for quarter one include a change of operational procedures to ensure that non-emergency, monthly escalator inspections are scheduled to happen during offpeak hours thereby allowing escalators to remain working when stations are at their busiest. While we will still need to take escalators out of service
for emergency repairs on rare occasions, and while a percentage of our fleet is undergoing heavy overhaul at any one time, this change reflects our desire to be more customer-led in our thinking. On the subway, public address speakers have been upgraded in a further five stations to make announcements easier to hear and understand. We have also commenced a spring clean in our bus bays, subway stations and passenger pick-up locations to make your journey more pleasant. See the accompanying article on the cleaning blitzes.

This week, the TTC launched a spring cleaning blitz in the east-end of Line 2 (Bloor-Danforth) at Scarborough Centre, Kennedy, Warden, Victoria Park, Broadview, Donlands, Greenwood and Main Street stations. Various departments were brought together, putting
regular cleaning schedules aside to spruce up all TTC stations. Day crews will focus on bus bays, station entrances and finishes, while night crews continue power-washing platform walls and floors across the system after subway service ends.
Garbage left in subway stations is not only an eyesore, but a leading cause of subway delays when blown to track level. Keeping stations clean creates a more pleasant transit experience for customers and staff, while reducing potential delays.

On Saturday, April 12, there will be a late opening on Line 1 (YongeUniversity-Spadina) between Bloor and Eglinton Stations due to emergency rehabilitation work on the subway track bed, switches and signals near Davisville Station. Frequent shuttle buses will operate between Bloor and Eglinton Stations. Customer service staff will be on hand to offer assistance, with Wheel-Trans buses available to accommodate seniors and persons with disabilities who use wheelchairs, scooters and other mobility aids. Regular subway service will resume on Saturday at noon. The track bed near Davisville Station is 60-years-old and needs to be replaced. Plans to rehabilitate tracks in the Davisville area continue to be examined, but steps must be taken now to improve subway reliability. Crews will tamp the ballast (stones) in the open area that support the track in an effort to improve track stability, check all switches, trains stops and signals, and make repairs or replace equipment as required. Work will begin at the close of service tonight and continue into Saturday until noon.

GTA raids result in murder charge
Peter Nguyen was killed on Feb. 4, 2014. police handout
A Toronto man who was among more than 20 people arrested in a series of raids in the city and surrounding areas Thursday has been charged in the shooting death of another man earlier this year. Thanh Tung Phan, 27, is charged with first-degree murder and two counts of criminal harassment in the death of Peter Nguyen. The 26-year-old was gunned down Feb. 4.
Phan’s arrest came as police officers from several forces executed search warrants at locations around the Toronto area in connection with an investigation dubbed Project Wheeler. Durham Region police say three guns were seized in the raids, along with a quantity of drugs and cash. They say more information will be released as it becomes available. Officers were seen using
stun grenades, police dogs and battering rams during the raids. A resident of a Toronto apartment building (near Don Mills Road and Overlea Boulevard) that was raided says he woke up to what he first thought was the sound of gunfire. “All we heard was the dogs barking and a big bang and them yelling,” he said. “We thought at first it was a gunshot.” THE CANADIAN PRESS

Living in harmony. Mother whose son faced bullying creates clothing and lifestyle brand to counter the problem Phoebe Ho

Whether it’s a condition which causes inhabitants to blurt out random compliments, or supernatural powers that gives them the ability to bench press llamas, no one’s ever too strange or different for the So So Happy world. It’s a world where all 80 quirky and silly characters are accepted and live in harmony despite their many differences. Most importantly, the fictional universe, dreamed up by L.A.based Cindy Bailey, is a place devoid of bullying — one she’s hoping to bring to reality. As a mother, Bailey witnessed the consequences of
bullying first-hand. Watching her eldest son struggle through his school years, Bailey knew she had to take action. So in 2010, she founded an L.A.-based clothing and lifestyle brand specifically to counter the problem. “It affected him so much throughout his life that I wanted to create something positive that would inspire kids,” she says. “It definitely has a tremendous effect on your self-esteem and your self-confidence.” With a mandate to “stomp out bullying,” Bailey says she could think of no better way to send the message than by combining her lifelong dream to start a clothing brand with her experience in brand development. With a team of designers, Bailey came up with dozens of Japanese pop culture-inspired characters, each with their own quirky backstory, to spread a simple message. “It’s really just about being kind, caring, loving, embracing individuality, respecting others, and you know, having confidence,” she explains.

Jim Flaherty dead at 64 ‘Very sad day.’ Death of former finance minister stuns Parliament Hill Jim Flaherty died suddenly Thursday at age 64, less than a month after retiring from his post as Canada’s finance minister. Flaherty, who spent eight years in the role, had been ill for some time, though that was not cited as a reason for his resignation. The news rocked the House of Commons, as politicians mourned the loss of a finance minister who trudged through a financial crisis and recession and balanced the once rocky Canadian budget. “Today is a very sad day — for me, for our government and for all of our country. I learned a short time ago that our colleague, my partner and my friend Jim Flaherty has passed away suddenly today,” Prime Minister Stephen Harper told MPs in a Parliament Hill committee room with his wife Laureen in tears by his side. “This comes as an unexpected and terrible shock to Jim’s family, to our caucus and to Laureen and me.”
Quoted
“I could always rely on Jim to be a devout friend through tough times, and an encouraging figure through good.” Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird, in a statement expressing his condolences.

Question period was suspended Thursday after the news broke. The usually raucous chamber was in a lull, with politicians hugging, crying and mourning together. “It was very, very sombre, sad, but shocking, obviously,”
said NDP MP Paul Dewar, adding that, unlike other finance ministers, Flaherty brought a certain levity to the usually stressful environment. “He had that twinkle in his eye and he had a great sense of humour that brought something to the
House of Commons and the politics, which is all too often not there.” Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird expressed his condolences in a written statement Thursday, calling Flaherty a “good friend and colleague for
Brazeau arrested on charges of assault, cocaine possession Suspended senator Patrick Brazeau pleaded not guilty on Thursday to several charges, including assault and cocaine possession. Police arrested the 39-year-old in Gatineau, near Ottawa, at around 4 a.m. Thursday following a domestic assault call. Police say they arrived to find Brazeau and a woman in a “physical altercation.” A 50-year-old man was also at the house. Brazeau was charged with two counts of assault, uttering death threats, cocaine possession and breach of conditions. He briefly appeared in court wearing handcuffs. He did not look at reporters. He also has one charge of assault and one charge of sexual assault outstanding from 2013. Brazeau was to be held in custody overnight and was
due to reappear in court Friday morning for a bail hearing. Crown prosecutor Sylvain Petitclerc said he asked to keep Brazeau in custody to assure the safety of others and because he breached bail conditions. “We cannot just let him go free as a bird like that,” he said, adding that depending on the bail hearing, Brazeau could be kept in custody again or be released with certain conditions. A huge pile of what appeared to be Brazeau’s belongings were strewn all over the back door of his girlfriend’s house, including photographs, his Certificate of Indian Status card, clothing and CDs. Gatineau police say the 50-year-old man also on the scene will be charged with assault. Lucy Scholey/metro in ottawa

through good.” Former Parliamentary Budget Officer Kevin Page, now a professor at the University of Ottawa, spent extensive time on the job with Flaherty and although the two butted heads on several issues, Page acknowledged how good a finance minister Flaherty was. “It’s a loss for the country for sure,” said Page. “It’s just an exhausting job, but he certainly rose to the occasion.” Flaherty’s family offered a statement before asking for privacy. “We appreciate that (Flaherty) was so well supported in his public life by Canadians from coast to coast to coast and by his international colleagues,” it said.

• Low projection: Six immigrants per thousand population each year; would be the lowest rate recorded since early 1990s.

What will Canada look like in 2017 as it becomes 150 years old? What will it look like beyond that? The tide of immigration will continue, but some think the flow will become more of a trickle as the years pass. “I think it’s a fair assumption to think that there will be a lower level of immigration than the current level,” said Western University sociology professor Roderic Beaujot. Politicians may say Canada needs immigration “especially at election time,” Beaujot said. But, the problem is, demographers and economists aren’t necessarily preaching the same message, he said. Beaujot also sees the need to stem population explosions around the world as having an adverse effect on immigration. “The world can’t sustain this continuous growth that we have,” he said. “The population has to live within the ecology. For that alone, it may slow down.” Such thoughts are worlds away for two young women, Canadian opinion
Young people more open to immigrants: Prof Freedom, peace, the opportunity to build a better
• Medium projection: 7.5 immigrants per thousand population each year; matches the average annual immigration rate for early 1990s to late 2000s. • High projection: Nine immigrants per thousand population each year; matches highest rate recorded since 1991.

who recently became Canadian citizens. Paula Garcia’s family came to Canada from Colombia seven years ago. Soon, the 23-yearold university student will be able to give back to the country that took her in, all while fulfilling a dream of her own. She plans to be an elementary school teacher, in part, because she wants to offer children the best possible future. “I love kids, so that’s what I thought would be the best thing for me,” she said. “I have the possibility to do this here now.”
The citizenship ceremony, Garcia said, was wonderful, and while the test she had to pass to get there was difficult, it was fair. She earned an A. She was one of 62 people who became citizens at a March 26 ceremony in London, Ont. Maria Qureshi, 32, originally from Pakistan, was there too. She held a small Canadian flag in her hand and had a smile on her face, after taking the oath. “It’s like nervous excitement,” she said. “I had tears in my eyes when they first announced that we’re citizens, and I loved the judge’s speech.
It was amazing.” Citizenship Judge Normand Vachon quoted inspirational leaders such as Nelson Mandela, Mother Teresa and Mahatma Gandhi in his welcoming speech to the new Canadians. Qureshi said the long wait for that day was difficult, but boasted that she too aced the citizenship test. “I studied extra hard for it, and I took it really seriously,” she said proudly. “So I scored full marks on it.” In Canada, she said she hopes for a better future because she has a better chance of
life. It’s simple to see why people from other countries care about immigration and are passionate about its future. But what about the average Canadian? Is im-
migration — the influx of people with different ways of doing things — a positive or a negative thing? Much of it depends on who you’re asking, one expert said. “Judging by the stu-
dents I meet every year in Ottawa, who come from several parts of the country, the young generation has a more progressive and more open-minded notion (of immigration),” said University of Ottawa
being successful. That was the common thread among many at the ceremony. They just want a fair chance to forge a good life for themselves, their children and, of course, to be key players in the Canada of tomorrow. That’s what Vachon urged them to do. He told them to find a job, keep a job, make sure their children are clothed, fed, warm and in school. He suggested they get to know their neighbours and become active, along with knowledgeable, in politics. Perhaps most importantly, he told them to make this country better than it was when they found it.
Offering their take
Looking into the future Here’s what some of the people Metro talked to over the past five days said about where they’ve come from and what they hope to see in coming years. Jamie Martinez (from Colombia): “The first thing that we need to do is to have equity here. It means if the population of Colombians is two per cent Jaime Martinez (in Canada), every company needs to have two per cent Colombians working there.” Shirley Edwards (from United Kingdom): “It takes a number of years to settle and integrate into a new country. Be patient, though. Know that Shirley when you Edwards need support (you can) ask for it (and) it will come. That’s what community is for. That’s the Canada we now call home.”
Canadian history professor Pierre Anctil. More rural areas tend to be less accepting, Anctil said. Though there are exceptions to that rule, he added.
Priscilla Bunke (From Nigeria): “My hope for the future is to be able to follow my career and help my children Priscilla Bunke achieve their potential in our chosen country.”

Chief prosecutor grills Pistorius Cracking up. One of the Olympian’s answers makes prosecutor erupt in laughter The chief prosecutor laughed scornfully at an answer from Oscar Pistorius during the Olympic athlete’s murder trial Thursday, mocking the man who shot his girlfriend. The judge sternly instructed the prosecutor to restrain himself and he apologized — then went right back to trying to pick holes in the testimony of the double-amputee runner. It was a harsh day of crossexamination for Pistorius, who was challenged relentlessly about his account of the moments just before he killed Reeva Steenkamp, as well as circumstances related to several firearms charges against him, including the firing of a gun in a crowded restaurant.
A mourner holds a photo of Reeva Steenkamp at her funeral in Port Elizabeth, South Africa. the associated press file
Prosecutor Gerrie Nel often sought to goad Pistorius, accusing him of being selfobsessed and hiding the truth about the death of Steenkamp, a 29-year-old model whom he shot through a closed toilet door in his home. Dressed in a dark suit, Pistorius, 27, responded methodically and in a soft monotone,
and only occasionally did his voice rise. He did not break down in tears as he has previously this week in the witness box and did not look at Nel, instead facing the red-robed judge, Thokozile Masipa, on the dais. The prosecutor seized on virtually every opportunity to challenge the athlete’s credibility, asserting that he had a string of unlikely excuses for why he wasn’t to blame in the gun charges he faces on top of murder. In casting doubt on the Olympian’s honesty, Nel was pushing the prosecution’s argument that Pistorius is also lying that he killed Steenkamp by mistake, thinking she was an intruder, in the pre-dawn hours of Valentine’s Day last year. Nel briefly erupted in laughter after Pistorius suggested that two witnesses who said they once saw him shoot out of a car sunroof had collaborated and fabricated their accounts. the canadian press
Syria
Civilian food crisis at its worst: UN The United Nations says the food crisis facing displaced Syrian civilians has now reached the worstcase scenario, with no end in sight. That is forcing the UN World Food Program to cut food distribution by 16 per cent this month to millions of internally displaced people and refugees after a 20 per cent cut in March, said Muhannad Hadi, the agency’s emergency co-ordinator for Syria. This comes as more people than ever before are solely dependent on the agency to feed them. The WFP predicts its desperate client list — from inside Syria and neighbouring countries — to grow from 5.8 million to seven million by year end, said Hadi. “From day one, we have prepared ourselves for the worst-case scenario, but the fact is we never though the worstcase scenario would be for so long,” Hadi said. the canadian press
Leadership not in sight. Yet. Blamed in some quarters for derailing the Parti Québécois campaign, newly elected MLA Pierre Karl Peladeau walks in to the PQ special caucus Thursday in Quebec City. He says “it’s too early” to talk about him seeking leadership of the party. Jacques Boissinot/THE CANADIAN PRESS

Morgentaler Clinic to close this summer New Brunswick. Controversial abortion clinic set to close, citing a lack of funds The contentious issue of abortion in New Brunswick arose Thursday after the Morgentaler Clinic in Fredericton said it will close at the end of July, a deci-

2002, Dr. Henry Morgentaler launched a lawsuit in a bid to force the provincial government to pay for the procedure at clinics. The case has been in limbo since Morgentaler died last May. New Brunswick Health Minister Hugh Flemming refused to comment on the matter, citing the court proceedings. In the legislature, Liberal Opposition Leader Brian Gal-
lant said he is pro-choice and called on the government to study the issue of access to abortion. Jula Hughes, a law professor at the University of New Brunswick and a supporter of the Morgentaler Clinic, said she fears women will look for less reputable places to terminate a pregnancy. “That would just be horrific beyond contemplation,” she said.

Child bride kills groom, friends: Cops A child bride forced into marriage in Nigeria killed a groom and three of his friends with a poisoned meal, police said Thursday. Fourteen-year-old Wasila Umaru was married last week to 35-year-old Umaru Sani, according to assistant superintendent Musa Magaji Majia. Over the weekend, the groom invited a dozen friends to celebrate at his village. Umaru told police she bought rat poison at a village market and used it
to prepare a dish of rice. “The suspect confessed to committing the crime and said she did it because she was forced to marry a man she did not love,” Majia said. The groom and a friend died the same day. Two other victims died later in the hospital. Umaru is co-operating with police and likely will be charged with culpable homicide, Majia said. According to the UN children’s agency, 50 per cent of Nigerian girls in rural areas are married before they turn 18. the associated press

Plan B: Why not engineer the climate? Divisive proposal. Supporters say it’s inevitable, opponents say it’s mad science; UN panel entertains the option It’s Plan B in the fight against climate change: cooling the planet by sucking heat-trapping CO2 from the air or reflecting sunlight back into space. Called geoengineering, it’s considered mad science by opponents. Supporters say it would be foolish to ignore it, since Plan A — slashing carbon emissions from fossil fuels — is moving so slowly. The UN’s expert panel
on climate change is under pressure from both sides this week as it considers whether geoengineering should be part of the toolkit that governments use to keep global warming in check. But even advocates of studying geoengineering express doubts. “Really at the present moment there is a high level of uncertainty surrounding all of these options,” said Steve Rayner, co-director of Oxford University’s geoengineering program. Some environmental activists watching the talks in Berlin want the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change to scratch references to geoengineering altogether. the associated press

Declared public nuisance. Sriracha factory pecked by Irwindale in heated spat A Southern California city has declared the factory that produces the popular Sriracha hot sauce a public nuisance. The Irwindale City Council’s action Wednesday night gives the factory 90 days to make changes to stop the spicy odours that prompted complaints from some residents last fall. Declaring a public nuisance will allow city officials to enter the factory and make changes if the odours persist after the deadline. The decision came despite
testimony by air-quality experts that progress was being made toward a resolution. The South Coast Air Quality Management District said its inspectors have taken air samples inside the plant, and believed the information gathered should allow the factory and the city to resolve their differences. An attorney for Sriracha maker Huy Fong Foods, Inc., said it had been working with the AQMD on its filtration system since the complaints first arose. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The CBC is slashing 657 positions over two years and will no longer pursue broadcast rights to professional sports as it grapples with a massive budget shortfall. The public broadcaster announced a swath of cuts Thursday that will shave $130 million from its 2014-2015 budget and spur a new mandate “to reimagine itself” as the media landscape changes. CBC president Hubert Lacroix detailed the news at a town hall meeting for employees that outlined financial challenges including a softened advertising market,

I know there will be many questions. We will answer them straight up, both in our Q&A session today, in the meetings that will follow, and as things take shape over the coming days.” Spokesman Ian Morrison, of the watchdog group Friends of Canadian Broadcasting, blamed the budget troubles on “a hostile” Conservative government that reduced the CBC’s funding appropriation by $115 million back in 2012.

Berndnaut Smilde, 35, from Amsterdam, Netherlands, uses a smoke machine and clever lighting to create nimbuses of various shapes in empty spaces.

takes awhile to get a cloud where I want it. Their ephemerality is what I like the most. They just appear for a few seconds and then it falls apart.” Berndnaut Smilde, based in Amsterdam
Ultimately, “there is a definite ominous element of my work,” the artist says, pointing to the clouds’ mystifying quality. “There is something ungraspable about clouds, which I think is really interesting,” Smilde says. “For this reason, people have been creating myths and meanings around clouds for centuries,” he concluded.

If we were to rank food flavours that are largely hostile to our taste buds, lemons would have to rank near the top with sour keys and horseradish. But that’s an admittedly sophisticated opinion, hardened by years spent emptying bowls, cups and plates. Combining flavours and whatnot. To get to the kernel of a lemon’s appeal, we need to return to ground zero for citrusy flavour country and put them in the hands of babies. The results are obviously adorable, but there’s something suspicious about the ones that appear to like it. Or perhaps they’re just old souls.

Bell uses the power of nature to help put life back into your lifestyle
Doctors on the Dr. Oz TV Show said that the most frequent complaint they get is “Being Very Tired”, some call it fatigue. They have no energy or interest to do anything. More food is not the answer. Drugs are not the answer either as the Johns Hopkins Medical School puts it: “The fact is, all medicines, whether OTC or prescription, carry some risk”. It needs a “key” to rejuvenate your own natural systems that fell asleep. Bell provides that key with natural ingredients: Selenium, amines like spermine and spermidine, which are found in radishes, cucumbers and oats as well as all human cells. Nothing could be more natural than topping off that supply. There is no risk. The Wayne State University researched these ingredients for years and Bell guarantees your satisfaction. It is all right to be skeptical #65 NPN 80044126 and for that reason we show a few results below and have hundreds more, if you go on our website under #7 Erosyn, which has exactly the same ingredients. This rejuvenation means that most men and women may have youthful feelings again for their partner. Those who want it can resume their intimate relationship. We supply the proof that it works. If incontinence plays a role: McMaster University says that 65% of middle-aged women suffer with incontinence and this is the main reason why many withdraw from intimacy. This can be overcome within days by drinking the Bell Bladder Control Tea #4b available in the same stores as #65. No more rushing to the bathroom and no padding or diapers needed anymore. Many people wrote we changed their lives. <Bell Middle Age Energy Booster changed our lives. All I can say is am very satisfied and so is my lovely wife. I am so happy I have my youthful energy back. My wife thanks you too. Raoul artin, 52, Woodstock, ON <I should have started using Bell #65 years ago, I should have started using Bell #65 years ago, when I noticed things were starting to slack off.

People write us it helps with all types of inflammation: < For the last 7-8 years I had inflammation in my spine L4 & L5, back and neck muscles that was unbearable and almost crippled me. After starting #70 for 30 days it gave me relief like a miracle. Most pain has disappeared and I can function again. Heather Tremblay, 53, Medicine Hat, AB < Had “Charlie horses” bumps on my legs that were very painful. I tried everything. After taking #70 the bumps diminished and I had no more pain. Mary Griego, 67, Tijeras, NM <I had shingles for 30 years. After taking #70 for my shingles I discovered it also relieved my frozen #70 NPN 80041845 shoulders. I can now raise my arms above my head, exercise and do all work again. I am ecstatic. Lovorn M. Bowe, 60, Roanoke, VA <Big difference in chronic nerve pain I suffered for 15 years all over my body, especially sciatica, osteoporosis, gout. I had great relief within 1 week.

This Draft Day is full of drama Synopsis
Reel Guys
On the day of the NFL Draft, Cleveland Browns general manager Sonny Weaver Jr. (Kevin Costner) is faced with some tough choices. His team is not doing well, sports radio talking heads are beating him up for ruining the franchise his late father — the legendary coach Sonny Weaver Sr. — built up and his girlfriend (Jennifer Garner) is angry with him. His future and possibly the future of the team hinges on one deal: a massive trade for hotshot quarterback Bo Callahan (Josh Pence). • Richard: ••••• • Mark: •••••
Denis Leary, Frank Langella and Kevin Costner star in Draft Day, which opens today. CONTRIBUTED
Finding feeling in football. Kevin Costner brings a lot of heart to this film about a down-on-his-luck NFL general manager hinging his future on one big trade Richard: Mark, the message behind Draft Day is that technical ability is one thing, but having heart is more important. It’s a key message for the story but vital when considering the movie as a whole. This film is technically proficient, but loads of
technically proficient flicks aren’t as entertaining as this one. This movie works particularly well because it has heart, just like the players that Kevin Costner’s character tries to recruit for his football team. Mark: Which makes the movie the opposite of Moneyball, which celebrates rationality and scientific method. I much preferred Costner’s flawed, slightly desperate soul over Brad Pitt’s technocrat. But there were other reasons I liked the movie. Having it take place on one day gives the film an urgency that really pulls you in. And there were some nice directorial flourishes, too.
I haven’t seen split screen used so well in a long time. And let’s not forget a strong supporting cast. RC: Like Moneyball, Draft Day scores authenticity points by casting a number of sports figures and insiders playing themselves, but you’re right, the supporting cast of professional actors really scores a touchdown. I enjoyed seeing Frank Langella playing the anything-for-a-buck owner of the Browns and Ellen Burstyn and Dennis Leary as Sonny’s mother and grumpy coach respectively, are both great. Sean Combs didn’t even bother me. Of course, this really is Kevin Costner’s movie. He’s easy to watch
at the best of times but particularly so when he’s in the genre that works best for him, and that’s sports movies. MB: And it’s hard to watch Costner in this without thinking about his iconic sports roles in Field of Dreams or Bull Durham. In fact, this is often where players wind up — as coaches and managers. So there’s a through line to the character to appreciate. The only thing that bothered me was that I am not a football fan. I’ve never seen a game. So all the negotiations were like watching a game of chess without any idea how the pieces are moved. Could you follow the technical de-
tails of the trades? Or were you wishing for subtitles? RC: Subtitles might have helped a bit, but for me it didn’t matter if I followed the intricacies of the draft day business because I think the underlying emotion that comes along with changing someone’s life by drafting them into the NFL — I found those scenes powerful. MB: Director Ivan Reitman has had a tendency to lapse into sentiment and bathos, but he keeps these tendencies nicely in check. I loved Costner, but I was also impressed at the sure handed direction. Reitman’s working at the top of his game.

Did Llewyn’s cat ever come back? Searching for Ulysses. Now that the Coen Brothers’ latest offering is on DVD, it’s time to talk about the fate of that mangy orange tabby
With Inside Llewyn Davis newly available for home viewing, it’s time to answer the question that has vexed pet lovers and conspiracy nerds for months. What did the Coen Bros. do to that poor, bedraggled cat? If you haven’t yet seen the movie, my top film of 2013, and you consider feline mis-
fortune to be a spoiler, please stop reading now and watch Inside Llewyn Davis on DVD or Blu-ray. Enjoy the movie, and come back later. For the rest of us, it’s time to take a cold, hard look at the big furry mystery of the marmalade tabby named Ulysses that dogs New York folk singer Llewyn Davis (Os-

car Isaac) in the film. The two become inseparable companions after the couch-surfing Llewyn accidentally locks Ulysses out of the apartment of his genial hosts the Gorfeins, who are both at work. The more Llewyn tries to unload his cat problem onto somebody else, the more Ulysses draws near. Then the cat decides, as cats are wont to do, that it’s time to be on its own. There’s more than this happening, of course. But let’s just say that events transpire to have Llewyn driving a car on the lonely highway between Chicago and New York, a light snow falling. He’s fighting fatigue from lack of sleep, barely watching the road. Suddenly, something small and furry crosses in front of the windshield. BAM! A shocked Llewyn realizes he’s hit something. He pulls the car over to side of the road and examines the front bender. There’s
blood all over it. Then he looks behind the car and sees a small animal, obviously injured, dragging itself toward a stand of trees. It’s seeking shelter and safety. There is no logical reason to assume that this is Ulysses. In fact, logic would suggest otherwise. It might even be a figment of Llewyn’s imagination. But such is the power of film that we instinctively assume the injured animal is Llewyn’s cat. We feel terrible for it, more than we might for some random roadkill. I suspect that a lot of cat lovers hated the scene. I also suspect that writers/directors Joel and Ethan Coen realized this might happen, and tried to avoid being tagged as cat haters. I asked them in an interview about the roadside incident when Inside Llewyn Davis premiered theatrically last December. They denied having any murderous intentions toward tabbies, although they
did say that cats are way less eager to be movie stars than dogs are. “It’s funny, but we weren’t even thinking that while shooting (the road scene),” Ethan said. “We were thinking Llewyn hit some kind of animal. But the cat is so established in the movie, everybody who watches it is determined to turn that creature into the cat.” “Which is understandable,” Joel interjected. “It’s a random animal. Maybe it’s a cat, maybe it’s a raccoon. It’s hard to see. We wanted it to be very obscure.” “We wanted to not know,” Ethan said, jumping back in. “Not that it matters, but the creature that we actually shot with was a small dog.” Whatever it is, the important thing to know is that it’s not Ulysses. So now you know, or at least as much as those wily Coen Bros. want you to know. peter howell/Torstar News Service

Trailer Park Boys are still living the dream Don’t Legalize It. Ricky, Julian and Bubbles are back and drunker than ever liz brown
liz.brown@metronews.ca
As my photographer and I file into a suite at Toronto’s Grand Hotel, we’re hit with the stench of stale cigarettes and sweat-out liquor. Bubbles horks a snot rocket before offering to shake hands with us. Ricky and Julian follow suit — sans loogie — and the trio settle into the overstuffed microsuede couch to talk about their upcoming movie, Don’t Legalize It, the third feature film for the Trailer Park Boys. Three movies and an enduring TV series (a new 10-episode season will debut on Netflix later this year) isn’t too shabby an accomplishment for the trio from Dartmouth’s Sunnyvale Trailer Park. But the boys don’t let the success get to their heads. They’re still living hard
and while they were here for the Toronto premiere of Don’t Legalize It, they made the most of their time in the big city. “It’s fantastic,” Bubbles says when asked how he’s liking Toronto. “We like it,” groans Julian behind a pair of dark aviators. “We were up late last night.” How late? “Oh, about 7:30 a.m.,” says Bubbles. It’s now noon and the sun is beating into the hotel room. But Bubbles insists they were only drinking cherry colas. I should’ve been a better journalist and clarified — though I’m pretty sure he meant the type of colas made of spiced rum and amaretto. Ricky has been silent so far, slouching on the far end of the couch, hiding behind a pair of sunglasses and looking slightly sweaty. But we want to hear from him — he’s the real star of this film, after all, as he treks to Ottawa in a camper van to make an inspired speech about why it’s a mistake to legalize dope. He looks a little ashen but tries his best to articulate his

the right way; it shouldn’t just be the government just taking all the money. Their dope is probably going to suck, you

But later that night, at the after-party, after the premiere of the film and a few downed cocktails, I see Ricky. I flip him the bird and tell him he has some off to f—k. “That was a terrible interview,” I tell him. “Maybe the worst ever.” “What do you want from me? I was hungover as f—k?” he shoots back. Fair enough. As if to make amends, he invites me to do a shot. I oblige. Even after a decade, life is still good as a Trailer Park Boy.

Ten years ago, tragedy struck the Russell family, leaving the lives of teen siblings Tim and Kaylie forever changed when Tim was convicted of the brutal murder of their parents. Now in his 20s, Tim is newly released from protective custody and wants to move on with his life. But Kaylie is convinced her parents’ deaths were caused by something else altogether: a malevolent supernatural force unleashed through the Lasser Glass, an antique mirror in their childhood home.
He thought it was over. After fighting his way out of a building filled with gangsters and madmen, rookie Jakarta cop Rama thought it was done and he could resume a normal life. He couldn’t have been more wrong. Formidable though they may have been, Rama’s opponents in that fateful building were nothing more than small fish swimming in a pond much larger than he ever dreamed possible.
It’s a jungle out there for Blu, Jewel and their three kids in RIO 2, after they’re hurtled from that magical city to the wilds of the Amazon. As Blu tries to fit in, he goes beak-to-beak with the vengeful Nigel, and meets the most fearsome adversary of all — his father-in-law.

Darwin meets Hitchcock in this true-crime tale of paradise found and lost. The Galapagos Affair is a fascinating documentary portrait of a 1930s murder mystery as strange and alluring as the famous archipelago itself.
Hailed by Michael Moore as “one of the best documentaries about a band that I’ve ever seen,” and by Pitchfork as “the funniest, most meta music movie since Spinal Tap,” Mistaken for Strangers is a truly hilarious and touching film about two brothers, Matt and Tom Berninger.

Colbert to take over Letterman spot Late Show. CBS chooses popular political satirist to helm talk show CBS moved swiftly Thursday to replace the retiring David Letterman with Comedy Cen-
tral’s Stephen Colbert, who will take over the Late Show next year and do battle with Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel for late-night television supremacy. Colbert, 49, has been hosting The Colbert Report since 2005, in character as a fictional conservative talk-show host. The character will retire with
The Colbert Report. “Simply being a guest on David Letterman’s show has been a highlight of my career,” Colbert said. “I never dreamed that I would follow in his footsteps, though everyone in late night follows Dave’s lead.” Letterman, who turns 67 on Saturday, announced on his show last week that he
would retire some time in 2015, although he hasn’t set a date. CBS said Thursday that creative elements of Colbert’s new show, including where it will be based, will be announced later. Mayors of New York and Los Angeles have already publicly urged the new Late Show host to choose their city. New York
would appear to have the clear edge, since Colbert is already based in New York and CBS owns the Ed Sullivan Theater, where the Late Show has been taped since Letterman took over in 1993. Letterman offered his endorsement Thursday. “Stephen has always been a real friend to me,” he said. “I’m very excited
for him, and I’m flattered that CBS chose him. I also happen to know they wanted another guy with glasses.” It’s a rapidly changing period for that time slot. Fallon took over for Jay Leno on NBC’s Tonight show in February, and has dominated the ratings since his arrival. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Heigl sues drugstore chain over tweeted picture Katherine Heigl is suing New York pharmacy chain Duane Reade for tweeting about her, according to Entertainment Tonight. Heigl apparently wasn’t too thrilled when the chain posted a photo of her near one of their stores to its Twitter and Facebook accounts. “Duane Reade is liable for not less than $6 million in com-
pensatory and punitive or treble damages,” a suit filed by Heigl reads. The photo, taken by paparazzi without Heigl’s permission, was posted with the caption, “Even (Heigl) can’t resist shopping NYC’s favorite drugstore.” The proceeds from any legal victory for the actress would go to charity.

Metro World News
Naya Rivera and Big Sean have called off their engagement. But their breakup is no placid, cordial conscious uncoupling. It’s more of a tweet-accusations-of-theft kind of uncoupling. Rapper Big Sean’s rep said that it was his decision to call off the engagement, denying rumours that he’d cheated. Sources told TMZ that he called things off because Rivera, who stars on Glee as Santana, was too controlling and jealous. Rivera herself felt no need to get her side of the story out through anonymous sources: She went straight to the Internet. In a now-deleted tweet, she wrote, “@bigsean stealing rolexes from a lady’s house now. Maybe cuz I’m on Glee and making more money or something. #triflin.” Burn! But the story doesn’t end there. Sources told TMZ that the watch was actually Sean’s and he just lent it to Rivera. We look forward to more deleted tweets in response. Regardless, neither is likely to languish in singlehood for long: Rivera seems to have gone up a cup size or two of late. And hey, Big Sean has a Rolex now.

If Lena Dunham has one regret in life, it’s that she isn’t a lesbian. While being honoured
at the Point Foundation awards earlier this week, Dunham praised her lesbian sister and admitted to a tinge of sexual orientation-centred jealousy, according to E! Online. “I have always felt a strong and emotional connection to the members of the LGBTQ community,” Dunham says. “It was actually a huge disappointment for me when I came of age and realized that I was sexually attracted to men. So when my sister came out I thought, ‘Thank God, someone in this family can truly represent my passions and beliefs.’”

Julia Louis-Dreyfus better hope her latest tattoo is a temporary one. The cover image of next month’s Rolling Stone magazine featuring the Veep star depicts a nude Louis-Dreyfus with a tattoo of the U.S. Constitution signed by John Hancock across her back. The problem is Hancock signed the Declaration of Independence, not the Constitution. Louis-Dreyfus jokingly blamed the blunder on Mike McClintock, the fictional Veep character played by Matt Walsh who serves as communications director to Louis-Dreyfus’ Vice-President Selina Meyer on the HBO comedy series. “Yet another Mike (expletive)-up,” the 53-year-old actress posted Wednesday on Twitter. “Dummy.” The National Constitution Center in Philadelphia mocked the flub by tweeting a photo of the cover alongside such founding fathers as George Washington and Benjamin Franklin in Signers’ Hall with the words, “Thanks for the shoutout but no Hancock here.” Rolling Stone spokeswoman Melissa Bruno said the Declaration of Independence is on the other side of Louis-Dreyfus’ body, but they couldn’t fit in the signatures.

Cali knows how to party... LIQUID ASSETS
Peter Rockwell @therealwineguy liquidassets@eastlink.ca
The California Wine Fair has begun its annual trek across the country. It’s always a classy night out, and fans of The Golden State will get to wet their whistle with a wide variety of wines from many of Cali’s prime wine regions. Though the Napa and Sonoma Valleys made it
famous, California has almost 150 American Viticultural Areas (AVAs). These AVAs define each wine’s geographical origin and where grapes that made the juice were grown. Paso Robles may not be the easiest region to pronounce (it’s pah-sow-row-bless), but it’s producing some of the most
original wines on the U.S. west coast from dozens of different grape varieties. Located between Los Angeles and San Francisco, it’s also the home to many of Cali’s most straight forward and consistent whites and reds made from mainstream fruit. Liberty School’s 2010
Cabernet Sauvignon ($19.99 - $21.99) is a gutsy, dark berrydriven red that makes a great pairing with everything from pepper steak to casual meats. For more on fair dates head to calwine.ca. PRICES REFLECT RANGE ACROSS THE COUNTRY. SOME PRODUCTS MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ALL PROVINCES.

Argos relocating camp to York U The Toronto Argonauts are shifting their training camp location to York University after holding camp for 18 years at the University of Toronto campus in Mississauga. There’s been no indication from the Argos where they’ll practise once the CFL season begins. Chris Rudge, executive chairman and CEO of the Argonauts, said that the York location for training camp has many advantages. “In addition to a turf field, our players will have access to world class sports training facilities as well as living quarters on campus,” Rudge said in a statement.

Shanahan joining Leafs, sources say NHL. Hall of Famer to step down as league’s director of player safety and could become the Buds’ president The intriguing concept of Brendan Shanahan joining the Maple Leafs has been rattling around the restless mind of Tim Leiweke for months. But after an explosion of speculation from a variety of
media outlets in the past 48 hours forced the idea to be fast-tracked, that concept is about to turn into reality. Shanahan, according to multiple sources, will resign his position as the NHL’s director of player safety as early as Friday and immediately join the Leafs this weekend as the team closes out a disappointing season. While his precise job could not be confirmed, sources suggest the Hall of Fame winger will likely be named
president of the Leafs hockey club, not only president of hockey operations. A formal Brendan Shanahan press conference to anGETTY IMAGES FILE nounce his hiring could happen as early as Monday in Leiweke’s latest eye-popping manoeuvre Shanahan has been toying with the idea of joining
the Leafs for weeks. His preference, it’s believed, would have been to stay in his current job until the end of the Stanley Cup final in June. However, it is unlikely commissioner Gary Bettman, even with the Leafs not involved in the 2014 Stanley Cup playoffs, was comfortable with Shanahan remaining on the job if the hockey world knew he was soon going to take an executive position with a member club.

Bradley, Defoe are in salary top three
Toronto FC’s Michael Bradley, right, and Jermain Defoe are the secondand third-highest earning MLS players. RICHARD LAUTENS/TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE
The lid has been lifted a little on the cost of Toronto FC’s rebirth. Figures released Thursday by the MLS Players Union show that Toronto is home to three of the 12 players in the league making million-dollar-plus salaries in 2014. Seattle Sounders striker Clint Dempsey is the league’s highest-paid player at $6.695 million (all figures U.S.). Two Toronto players are next with U.S. midfielder Michael Bradley at $6.5 million and England striker Jermain Defoe at $6.18 million.
Against the cap
$387.5K
All 12 of the million-dollar-plus earners are designated players, meaning that only $387,500 of their pay counts against their club’s $3.1-million salary cap.
Los Angeles Galaxy players ranked fourth and fifth with forward Landon Donovan listed at $4.583 million and Irish striker Robbie Keane at $4.5 million. Two New York Red Bulls are
next: French striker Thierry Henry at $4.35 million and Australian midfielder Tim Cahill at $3.625. Montreal forward Marco Di Vaio is the highest-paid Impact player at $2.6 million (eighth in the league) while midfielder Pedro Morales leads the Vancouver Whitecaps at $1.41 million (10th). Toronto’s Brazilian striker Gilberto makes $1.2 million (12th). None of the figures include performance bonuses. THE CANADIAN PRESS

Former UFC champion Georges St-Pierre says his knee surgery went well and the rehab that looms ahead won’t impact his decision on whether to return to mixed martial arts competition. The 32-year-old Montreal fighter’s left knee was operated on Wednesday in Los Angeles. He had reconstructive surgery on the other knee in December 2011. St-Pierre plans to spend the next three months rehabbing in Los Angeles, using the same team as he did for the last operation. While he is on painkillers in the immediate wake of the surgery, he said he was in good spirits.

Pedro Alvarez hit a threerun homer to cap a five-run seventh inning and Jason Grilli retired Emilio Bonifacio on a bases-loaded grounder to end the game, giving the Pittsburgh Pirates a 5-4 victory over the Chicago Cubs on Thursday. The Pirates trailed 4-0 heading into the seventh, but two big drives changed things. Pinch hitter Travis Snider cut the deficit in half with a two-run homer off Brian Schlitter. Alvarez put Pittsburgh ahead with his three-run drive against James Russell (0-1), his third homer in two games. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
With dad in his ear, Bill Haas turned in the best round of his Masters career Thursday. Now he wants to do what his father never could — finish the job. Haas birdied the final hole for a 4-under 68 and the opening-round lead, the first time he has broken 70 in five appearances at Augusta National. His father, Jay, played in the Masters 22 times, with five top-10 finishes topped by a tie for third in 1995. He is staying with his son this week and providing valuable advice on the practice range. “I never remember thinking, ‘Man, I wish I could hit this shot for my dad,’” Bill Haas said. “But I do know that

there’s times I’m like, ‘I wish my dad could hit this shot for me.’” Jay Haas never won a major despite having plenty of success on the PGA Tour. Maybe his 31-year-old son can take care of that family oversight. “I think he deserves a ma-
jor in his career as good as he played,” Bill Haas said. Defending champion Adam Scott has his major title and got off to a strong start in his quest to stay dressed in green. Scott rolled in a testy putt to save par at the 18th, and finished with a 69, one shot off the lead.
“It was a nice way to walk off, not shooting 70,” Scott said. Louis Oosthuizen and Bubba Watson, another owner of a green jacket, matched Scott with a 69. Playing in their first Masters, Jimmy Walker, Kevin Stadler and Jonas Blixt were among those shooting 70, making their way around the course just fine despite some unfamiliarity with the revered layout.

They’ll meet Friday to decide who moves a giant step closer to having the No. 1 seed on their half of the NBA playoff bracket, Indiana (54-25) entering with a half-game lead over Miami (53-25). “It’s going to be intense,”
King’s priority
“We want to get healthy. That’s all that we care about, going into the post-season healthy.” LeBron James isn’t too concerned about clinching the No. 1
spot in the East
Heat forward Chris Bosh said. “It’s going to be a hard-fought game. There’s something at stake. It’ll pretty much be the playoffs and I think it’ll be a great atmosphere.... We expect them at their best.” Emotions
run high whenever these teams play and the Heat needed seven games to beat Indiana in last year’s Eastern Conference finals. Hosting potential Game 7’s is a perk that comes with holding the No. 1 seed. The Associated Press

Could the Buffalo Bills be moving to Niagara Falls? Looking to relocate. A task force is considering a number of potential locations that could be the new home of the Bills Don’t rule out Niagara Falls, U.S. as a potential future home of the Buffalo Bills. Several officials told The Associated Press that a newly formed Bills stadium task force of public and private leaders seeking to bolster the team’s long-term viability is considering sites that would put it closer to the team’s burgeoning Ontario fan base. “We’re looking at Niagara County,” New York Lt. Gov.
Quoted
“We’re open to looking at a number of venues.” New York Lt. Gov. Robert Duffy
Robert Duffy told the AP this week. “We’re open to looking at a number of venues.” Niagara Falls Mayor Paul Dyster confirmed Niagara County was discussed as an option during the inaugural meeting last week of the newly formed New Stadium Working Group committee. Duffy made clear “that all options should be on the table,” Dyster said, adding that includes Niagara County and even Batavia, about halfway between Buffalo and Rochester.
That goes beyond the group’s initial directive, which was first limited to seeking potential stadium sites in Erie County, where Buffalo is located. Another idea is having the Bills relocate their headquarters to the University at Buffalo campus in the Erie County town of Amherst, where a new practice facility would be built and shared with the school’s football team. That proposal would satisfy a longterm need for a Mid-American Conference program seeking to broaden its profile. Though not a member of the working group, New York state Sen. Tim Kennedy told the AP he is aware of the preliminary discussions tying the Bills and the school.

Horoscopes
Aries
March 21 - April 20 The influence of Neptune, planet of deception, in your chart warns you could give away too much information about yourself. Be generous with your time and, if you can afford it, with your money but keep your secrets to yourself.
Taurus
April 21 - May 21 Why are you trying to swim against the tide when you know it’s a battle you are destined to lose? You may not agree with the way things are going but you have no choice but to go with it, for now.
Gemini
May 22 - June 21 Someone you have always thought of as a rival will surprise you today by being not just friendly but also open and honest on a personal level. Is it a trick? No it is not.
Cancer
June 22 - July 23 If you want to make a success of something, get assistance. According to the planets, you have taken it as far as you can on your own. Now you must share the load with others.
Leo
July 24 - Aug. 23 Over the next week you will think more and more about your career and long-term ambitions. The need to make money may be a motivating factor but the most important thing is that do what you love.
Virgo
Aug. 24 - Sept. 23 You seem to be in everyone’s good books at the moment, which makes you suspicious. The simple fact is some people like you for who you are, so stop being negative.

Crossword: Canada Across and Down
Libra
Sept. 24 - Oct. 23 If you say something you know to be untrue today, the planets warn you will be found out. There is absolutely no reason you should lie or give false information.
Scorpio
Oct. 24 - Nov. 22 You may not understand why so many people are singing your praises but you must have done something to warrant being the centre of attention. Milk the applause.
Sagittarius
Nov. 23 - Dec. 21 You may be on top of your game but a week or so from now your energy may dip, so don’t make too many plans and certainly don’t take on any more chores. If anything, you need a rest.
Capricorn
Dec. 22 - Jan. 20 Something unexpected will happen today and because you like everything to happen at the right time, chances are you will be thrown out of your stride. Good. It’s not healthy to get too set in your ways.
Aquarius
Jan. 21 - Feb. 19 The more open you have been in recent weeks, the more you need to spend some time by yourself now. This is a time for thinking and for coming to terms with your feelings. You can’t do that at a party.
Pisces
Feb. 20 - March 20 You may have to take a detour today but that’s OK. You will reach your chosen destination so don’t be impatient. It’s what you see and hear and feel along the way that makes the journey worth it. Sally BROMPTON
