King St. merchants came out of a meeting with Mayor Tory Friday apparently optimistic that they can get the “street rules” lifted from their businesses after 7 p.m. It all seems to obvious. Ban cars, kill business. Think of South Bayview without cars. Uh-huh. Then, Donald Trump says he has cancelled his official trip to London to open the new US embassy there. It seems certain he would be besieged by demonstrations. Below, be happy as a craftsman of the old school continues to carve carousel horses. This is lovely. And finally, let’s go to arctic Murmansk, where many Canadian sailors laboured and died in WWII to save Russia from the Nazis. These days residents are celebrating the return of the sun after 40 days of darkness.
