The Ontario government has changed its mind Monday and will now allow 550 fully inoculated health-care workers to attend the Toronto Maple Leafs Game 7 against Montreal at Scotiabank Arena. Last night, that request had been rejected. “Following discussions with the Chief Medical Officer of Health, Toronto Public Health and hospital partners, I am happy to announce that they have signed off on allowing 550 fully vaccinated frontline health-care workers, including hospital and long-term care staff, to be invited to attend Game 7 of the series between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Montreal Canadiens at Scotiabank Arena tonight,” Premier Ford said in a statement issued with the morning light.

Admit it! There’s very little else to say

Here’s a couple of pre-game videos that offer a “set up” of tonight’s game. The pickings are slim, however.

Unusual stoplight lets cars and bikes cross lanes safely

The green bicycle signal

The City has completed new safety arrangements at the tricky corner where cars exit Danforth Ave onto the DVP across bicycle lanes. The tweet posted here shows the alternate rights of way for cars and bicycles at the redesigned corner. Quite clever and new hope for fewer accidents along this stretch.

Boris Johnson has married his girlfriend and former assistant Carrie Symonds in a ceremony at Westminster Cathedral. The nuptials come as Johnson pushes for new trade deals around the world. It’s said he will ask Canada to accept more British cheese — tasty Stilton, Cheddar and that semi-soft favourite Stinking Bishop.

We love the success of J.K. Rowling. When she tried to sell her first manuscript of Harry Potter back in 1995, publishers said it was too conventional, too long, too weird or too old-fashioned. Now who’s laughing

A blink of the lights Sunday morning about 9.12 a.m. has residents across South Bayview on edge. The blinking lights were noticed in Moore Park and Leaside as noted by users here. The worrisome blinking comes five days after Tuesday’s still-unexplained two-and-a- half-hour power collapse

Although it’s only a game and Toronto hasn’t lost the series yet, there is an ocean of foreboding and visions of defeat in the air Sunday morning. Montreal Twitter fans are taking a fiendish delight in the Leaf’s Game Six loss.

Okay, call it Silly Saturday. It begins with the utterly giddy governor of West Virginia urging people to get vaccinated because his chubby Bulldog, Baby Dog, wants them too. It’s not Ontario-style but whatever it takes. Also Twitter.

Habs tickets offered at silly prices

Only 2,500 fans permitted

As you’ve heard, some 2,500 fans will be permitted inside the Bell Centre for tonight’s Game Six between the Leafs and the Canadiens. Do you think that might put some pressure on the price of the tickets?
