    • Jesse Brown
      This is officially the most important podcast in Canada. Jesse Brown is a broadcaster, journalist, reporter...etc. with NO official ties to anyone. That makes him unique in Canadian news reporting...he is beholdin' to nobody. He's fun, enlightening and his guest tell the truth, or at least describe the truth as best they can. Check out his first podcast with CBC's Michael Enright... very good!
    • Ellen Roseman Blog
      According to her blog, "Ellen is a personal finance and consumer affairs columnist with the Toronto Star’s business section. Her columns appear Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday." She is to the local newspaper scene, what Erin Davis it to the media scene... that is, a "must read".
    • Erin Davis's Official Homepage
      Erin always has a finger on the pulse of this vibrant city. Her blog is informative and fun. If you want to know what's happening or what's happened, don't bother listening to the news reports, go to this blog. My guess is this is one of the most popular sites in Toronto.

    Good Manners is Good Business

    I was in a rather nice restaurant having lunch with a client recently. It was filled with business types, young people climbing the proverbial ladder. I was surveying the scene and happened upon a gentleman across the room heartily completing... Read more →
