Coffee is one of the most popular beverages consumed by Canadians, so it makes sense that Canada’s coffee scene is among the best in North America.

We asked 3 couples how they (eventually) found love | Curated

Everyone loves a good modern love story as much as the classic tales of Romeo and Juliet or Pride and Prejudice.

But these days, we spend so much time on social media that potential soulmates could be missing the chance to lock eyes on the train or meet at their local coffee shop. For this reason, it’s almost rare to meet a couple who met each other in real life, beyond the screens of their smartphones.

The thing is, relationships are not always as glamorous as they appear to be in Hollywood m

Millennial renters particularly at risk of carbon monoxide poisoning, new study finds | Curated

Carbon monoxide is an invisible, tasteless, and odourless gas that can cause serious harm or death. And unless you have a carbon monoxide alarm, it’s also extremely difficult to detect — until it’s too late.

Despite this, a recent Carbon Monoxide Awareness Survey commissioned by Technical Safety BC revealed that only 47% of BC residents aged 18 to 34 have carbon monoxide alarms installed in their homes — 38% of them are renters.

According to Dean Schmitke, senior safety officer of incident inv
