The @Raptors are worth one million Bucks any day! Basketball was actually invented by a Canadian back in 1891 (and at a YMCA!), so it’s safe to say we’re ready to take on whatever gets thrown at us🏀

Totally forgot that @F45Training is a misnomer on Saturdays. Nothing like a full hour of torture to kick off my Saturday 😭🙈

Our North York Y knitting club is always busy this time of year, creating celebratory holiday hats, scarves for kids who don't have their own, and blankets for our veterans. Inspired by their giving spirit. https://t.co/Dla60rHcjt
