A fun photo project by Cameron McLellan is attracting much attention online.  Our favourite extraterrestrial E.T. has been spotted at various Toronto landmarks.  Wonder if he found a phone.  Regardless, we do hope he enjoyed his visit to our fine city.  You can view Cameron’s whole album on Flickr.

TTC chief Andy Byford addresses media

TTC chief general manager Andy Byford says that a liquid fuel, probably kerosene or fuel oil, is “pouring into the tunnel” near the College station. Byford said it is the City’s belief that the fuel is coming from a nearby building, perhaps a hotel, which uses fuel oil. He said that maybe a tank had cracked after a cold winter and a Spring thaw. Mr. Byford said he was very surprised to find the amount of liquid on the tracks and beside them when he inspected the site personally. He had thought that it was only a trickle. It is coming through an expansion joint in the concrete walls and ceiling of the tunnel. Work has now begun to try to seal the joint but the fear is that unless the entire joint is sealed the leak will find its way to another location. Byford said the sealing and cleanup might take two or three hours but he had to concede that it was possible the subway would not be operating for the afternoon rush hour. Electric subways such as the Yonge system create sparks in normal operation and the risk of a serious fire is behind the need to shut it down the line until the fuel is cleared.

Commuters flood out of Union Station at word the subway is closed up to Bloor

The Yonge subway is closed south of Bloor Street this morning as the TTC tries to figure out how to clean up what smells like diesel oil spilled into the Sunday tunnel near College station. There is no explanation for this. TTC CEO chief general manager Andy Byford said an unknown substance was found in the tunnel about 500 feet north of College Station at around midnight. At first crews were led to believe that the substance was water. Later the suspicion was gasoline, but even later the odour of the liquid suggested it was diesel. .

There is mayhem on the 401 at the 404 westbound ramp this afternoon where a tractor trailer has tipped over and fallen onto to westbound lanes below.  Angels must have been watching the busy highway because it was clear of cars when the huge truck came tumbling down and the death is zero!

Such is the nature of our times that when a lunatic send harmless white powder through the mail to two Senators in Ottawa the country must go on alert for possible biochemical terrorism. It can’t be helped. But all staff and members of the House of Commons and Senate were warned to be careful as envelopes arrived this morning. The return address said “Ottawa shooting.”

Prom is so exciting.But if you’re in Adams County Pennsylvania, better send a picture to the school so it can be approved as not to revealing. No flesh-coloured sheer under open lace look.No no.
