Chatham-Kent Council has approved a tax increase of 1.99 per cent for 2019.

The decision came down last night, the third night of budget deliberations. The increase works out to about $57 per year for that average house assessed at $168,000.

This is the fifth year in a row that CK’s budget increase has been under the rate of inflation.

Samsung just launched a new app for their smart refrigerators called Refrigerdating.

It’s a Tinder-style app, but instead of swiping on pictures of potential dates, you swipe on pictures of what’s in their fridge.

If you want to participate, the app is free.

You don’t have to own one of Samsung’s $4,000 smart fridges to join, you can use the app in your phone’s browser at Refrigerdating.com, you’ll just need to upload a pic of the inside of your fridge.

Yes, actually, Samsung is trying to turn your refrigerator into Tinder https://t.co/iyCd5a0FhC pic.twitter.com/M9UUni0RSu
