My deepest and sincere condolence to the family of Rob Ford - the former mayor of the great city of Toronto.
You will forever be known as the People's mayor and the mayor that really makes a difference!
You are the type of mayor who relentlessly work for the this city of Toronto. Who works with passion and wholeheartedly devote your life to the betterment of the city.
I know this blog is about things to do in Toronto which mainly for things that people love to see in Toronto but this time it is also a good idea to give respect to great councilor and mayor of Toronto!!!

Post Biggest Winter Storm of 2015-2016 Winter Season
The biggest winter storm that hit Toronto for winter season of 2015- 2016 has passed.
It was a real messy drive to work anywhere you would like to go in Toronto today, March 2, 2016.
I drove my son to school today as most if not all school buses for Toronto, York, Durham, and the vicinity area were cancelled.
The main roads are a little bit clear and its being cleared as I write this article. So I assume that by the end of the day, it will be a better drive. The main highways 401, 404, 403 or shall I say the 400 series are cleared and have a better driving conditions at the moment.
But for all air travelers, they should check with their respective airlines as there are still some cancellations and delays at PEarson Airport in Toronto.
It has been a big winter storm story for Toronto Canada as for the most part of the winter season was mild with very little snow.
Yesterday, March 1, 2016 when it started, the snow was coming down light and with flurries at times and by Dinner time it started to intensify.
Here are pictures of the before and after the biggest winter storm of 2015-2016 season!
As you can see its not the REAL Big storm but since we did not have the Freezing cold Temps and Snow for the winter season, they sounded like its really a big winter storm!!!

Freezing Cold In TO
What a day's difference!?
It was really cold at minus 26 last weekend and then the nice balmy temperature for a couple of days and then.... Whammmmmm!!!... we are back at minus 14 early in morning today!
Well, I am not complaining as its still winter but when its like this, it tends to make us prone to colds and flu, cough and runny noses...
Wish it was like something like a warmer day so I can get a bit of walking for my daily exercises... I love walking in that park and I missed those right now...
TO is sunny right now but don't be deceived by the looks of the outdoors as it might bite you if you don't prepare yourself for the cold temps right now.
Though it will get warmer later in the day and then we'll have a more warmer and above seasonal temps tomorrow...
This Siberian Huskie will not mind the outdoors right now...!!!... hahahhaaha... they live in the cold and that will just fine for them...

Hotels in Toronto? Read This Sound And Helpful Advice About Hotels
While you can easily browse online to find your best hotel here in Toronto Canada, it would wise for any traveler to know more about these advice on hotels. Toronto hotels are no different from other hotels you may find in some other countries.
Sooner or later, everyone needs to crash in a hotel room. Without good research, your hotel stay could be a regrettable experience. Luckily, this is a great place to be. Here, you're going to read about tips to help your stay be great.
Online travel websites can offer you a great deal on hotels with lots of choices, all on the same website. If you are a member of a particular hotel's loyalty program, remember to include that information when you are checking on rates. You may also qualify for discounts from other organizations you belong to such as AAA or AARP.
To keep your electronics safe when you are out of the hotel room, use the safe that you'll find in your closet. Place all electronics there along with important documents, such as your passport or plane tickets.
Check with any membership programs for deals. There are times when an organization will give you great deals on the price of hotels. The discounts could be 10% or even higher! If your stay will be for multiple nights, these discounts can save you lots of money. This adds up to a night's stay that is almost free.
Never book a hotel room before seeking out online deals. It's not uncommon for a hotel employee to not mention to you that it is possible to receive a great discount online. This is why you should always do your research well online to find these hidden discounts. Check websites like Hotwire.com, Kayak.com and Priceline.com for great discounts.
If you want a couples massage, book early. Most of the time, the most reputable masseuses will be booked, so plan early in order to have the most enjoyable experience.
If you are a member of AAA, ask about a hotel discount. You may not know that your membership to the auto club includes discounts on hotels. It can save you 5% or more on hotels all around the nation. Over multiple nights, that five percent will really add up.
If you tend to return to the same family of hotels for your vacation, consider joining their membership reward programs. Many hotels offer membership programs that allow you to earn points for each of your stays. With enough points you can get free rooms in the future. They may also offer discounts for shows, restaurants and other things.
When you book has a huge impact on your final bill. Availability is one factor that plays a part in cost. If you can, don't make your reservation more than one day prior to your stay. This can net you a great deal. Hotels are often happy to slash prices on impending vacancies since they will get nothing if they can't book the room.
Make sure that your family enjoys their stay by calling ahead to ensure the hotel's swimming pool is working, Nothing is quite as frustrating as arriving at a hotel with children clamoring to jump in the pool only to find that it is closed.
Inquire if the hotel is a non-smoking hotel. If you're not a smoker, a smoking room may be unappealing. Even if you reserve a non-smoking room, the smell of smoke can circulate through the hotel's air vents and cause your clothes to pick up the odor. There are times when smokers end up staying in non-smoking rooms, and smoking in them. Too avoid exposure to the smell of cigarette smoke, it may be best to stay at a non-smoking hotel.
If you smoke, be aware of the hotel policy with regard to smoking. Certain hotels provide rooms that are specifically for people who smoke. If this applies to the hotel of your choice, request that type of room specifically. Some hotels will levy a large fine if they can determine that you smoked in a room where smoking was not allowed, so make sure you understand and follow the hotel's smoking policy.
You should know that you generally aren't going to be able to do an early check-in at a hotel. Unless you're okay with waiting for your room to be ready, plan your timing wisely. The hotel must clean each room prior to the next visitor taking it. Should you arrive early, ask at the desk if it is possible to check in, but do not be surprised if they say no.
If a hotel tries to "walk" you, know what your rights are. Sometimes a hotel will overbook and you will find the room you booked is not available. When this happens, the hotel directs you to another property, "walking" you. You should try to avoid this; however, if this is necessary, ensure you are provided with the same quality room or better at the same price you would have paid.
Whatever you do, don't open the bottled water. After traveling and checking in, you might be feeling tired and/or thirsty. As a result, you likely want to purchase that bottle of water you see sitting on the counter. Hotels take advantage of guests by charging ridiculous amounts for bottled water. Sometimes it is possible to get bottled water at no cost in the hotel gym. The best idea, however, is to bring your own.
To summarize, there are going to be times when you have to book a hotel room. You will find yourself in a bad hotel if you don't plan right. You now know exactly what you need to know to find the nicest hotel room for your upcoming trips.
