Do you know someone with a birthday today? Probably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More people in Canada are born on September 16th than any other day of the year. This week has more birthdays than any other week of the year, with five days in the top ten. In the U.S., the most common birthday is September 9th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Experts say more babies are made in the lead-up to the holidays than any other time of year, because there’s more cheer in the air, more time on our hands and more booze in our system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite that fact, September somehow isn’t the most common month to be born; that’s August. July is next, and September is third.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The least common month to be born is February, partly because it has the fewest days. April is next, followed by November. The least common birthday of the year is December 25th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Niagara Falls will not be getting another Ferris wheel after all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ford government’s giant Ferris wheel planned for Niagara Falls has been scrapped. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The plan for the observation wheel at Queen Victoria Park, overlooking the Horseshoe Falls and the American Falls, was part of the Destination Niagara plan unveiled by the province last December in hopes of boosting tourism in the area. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Niagara Parks Commission has canceled the RFP process. The plan now is to replace the existing Sky Wheel on Clifton Hill with a new 250-foot Ferris wheel, making it the tallest Ferris wheel in Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
