June 11th is the 162nd day of the year. There are 203 days remaining until the end of the year.

The monthly Blood Donor Clinic is this afternoon from 1-7 at St. Clair College Healthplex.

Note the change in date and location (Spirit & Life Centre is undergoing renovations)

Book your appointment now at Blood.ca, call 1-888-2-DONATE, use the apps or just walk in.

Donors are down, we need you to give that gift of life. Please donate!

Railway crossing repairs will begin today at the CN tracks on Keil Drive.

They’re set to start at 8am to 5pm with intermittent lane closures throughout the day. Expect delays.

It is unknown how long the work will last.

No luck for the Raptors in Game 5, falling to the Golden State Warriors 106-105.

Toronto still leads the series 3-2. Game Six is Thursday in Oakland, and if the Warriors can win that one, then they come back to Toronto for Game Seven on Sunday.

Only one team has won the NBA Finals after going down 1-3. And that was the Cleveland Cavaliers, who did it to the Warriors in 2016.

There was an earthquake outside Cleveland yesterday morning.

A magnitude 4.0 earthquake was registered at 10:55am, centered in Lake Erie, just off the shore.

Not something they get very often there, so a lot of people called 911. Helpful note: The number one thing people do wrong when there’s an earthquake is clog 911 with the question, “Was there just an earthquake?” Unless there’s an emergency situation, don’t do it.

Kraft is releasing a new product called salad frosting. It’s in a pouch and has lots of bright colours on the front.

But “salad frosting” is actually just ranch dressing.

By disguising it as “frosting,” Kraft is hoping it’ll push kids to use it on their vegetables.

By the way, ranch dressing isn’t that healthier than actual frosting when it comes to calories and fat. It does have less sugar though and if it motivates kids to eat vegetables, then maybe it’s worth it.

Sometimes parenting means bending the truth. That’s why we made limited edition Kraft Salad “Frosting,” the easy way to get your kids to eat their greens.

Tweet your best parent lie using #LieLikeAParent #contest for a chance to win your own Salad “Frosting.” Details in bio. pic.twitter.com/APxB3PHu2s
