Every weekday’s end, we collect just about everything you ought to care about or ought not miss. A screencap of the New York Times ‘s cycling map of Toronto, with user comments. The New York Times has created some crowdsourced maps of cycling tips , using input from riders in different cities. You can go take a look at what Toronto cyclists are saying about our streets, and maybe add some comments of your own. Mayor Rob Ford’s wife , Renata, did an interview with the Sun ‘s Joe Warmington, which is significant, because she rarely ever makes press appearances of any kind. She didn’t say much of substance, but still. Interesting: the botched St. Lawrence Market North redesign we wrote about last week is going to city council without recommendations , meaning there will likely be a political fight over whether to continue with the project in its present form or not. Still the worst: Dufferin Street . The best, forever: a Toronto firm that makes a living sending telegrams . Telegrams!

Every Sunday, Mayor Rob Ford and his brother, Doug, host The City , a two-hour talk show on Newstalk 1010. We listen so you don't have to. Rob and Doug Ford in the studio. Photo courtesy of Newstalk 1010. It’s another installment of our favourite radio show, folks! Will Rob and Doug discuss last week’s epic police raid that may have turned up evidence related to Rob’s alleged drug use? Will they discuss why they voted against allowing permanent residents the right to vote in municipal elections? Or maybe they’ll discuss how to achieve solutions beyond talking points when it comes to Toronto’s beleaguered housing agency, TCHC? Nope! They’ll talk about how they don’t like the media. 1:07: Rob and Doug quickly brush aside an unfortunate incident on Saturday, when the mayor was allegedly splashed with an unknown liquid (possibly juice) by a woman at the Taste of Little Italy festival. It’s good to see them take it in stride, but they shouldn’t have to. People, don’t throw things at the mayor or pour liquid on him. Unless he just won a football game and you’re on his team, in which case a Gatorade shower is cool . 1:09: Doug discusses his and Rob’s experience at the Taste of Little Italy festival on Saturday. According to Doug, the number one comment at the festival was “Bleep the Star ,” which sounds like the strangest Family Feud response ever. 1:11: After announcing their Father’s Day plans, Doug jokes he wants to know how Daniel D ...
