On this day in 1912, the Château Laurier opened.
The hotel was commissioned by Grand Trunk Railway president Charles Melville Hays. Construction cost $2 million and took from 1909 to 1912.
Hays never saw it open. He died on the Titanic two weeks earlier.
@thehazelmae@BlueJays I hope he can get them to stop their gross spitting & gobbing. That is a tradition that really needs to go!! It's gross & disgusting and not at all hygienic. It's likely why there are multiple players off sick at the same time. #KazumaOkamoto#spitting#bacteria#virus

Japanese star Kazuma Okamoto introduced a new tradition on his new team, the Toronto Blue Jays.
Before every game, players stand in a circle and share what they are grateful for.
It's now one of the best traditions in Major League Baseball.
BREAKING: Due to the potential of a TERRORIST ATTACK, heavily armed police officers will be patrolling popular landmarks and tourist hotspots in Toronto.
Panic today! Our kitty Spice was dropped off 4 years ago as a ‘temporary rescue’. She had lived in a high rise, no outdoor skills. We live near a ravine with coyotes. No one could find her this morning after a door was accidentally left open a crack. She has found a new hideout!
I absolutely love listening to the beautiful sounds birds make. What a glorious way to wake up to first thing in the morning. Are you a person who enjoys listening to the birds as you wake up? Or you one of those people who prefers peace and quiet and wish the birds would be silent?
