    Controversy rages over whether a CNE landmark and one of its oldest restaurants should remain closed during Blue Jay games to give new stadium concessionaries more business. Gregory Dallas (above), owner of the 60-year-old Dugan's, says he's been asked to shut down an hour before each game.

    Yea. To Principal John Plumpton of Jane Junior High School in North York for trying to get more students to read books. Twice a week staff and students are given 50 minutes of the day just to read - anything they like. Some of them may discover that reading is a joy, even though it's a little more work than watching a TV scree. It's a nice idea.
