Jim Carrey Gets A Website!
The funny man brings his unique humour directly to you with his Twitter feed, bizarre visuals (an octopus and the Canadian flag share a skyline), early CBC appearances and craziness for days. So this is what it's like inside the brain of a mad genius.

Tomorrow Is Remembrance Day
The Canadian tradition is to wear poppies and visit war memorials. But if you're sitting in an office tomorrow, sans poppy, then at the 11th hour (of the 11th day of the 11th month), the time the Armistice of World War I was signed in 1918, observe two minutes of silence to remember those who died.

If You Thought You Didn't Have A Reason To Watch Glee, Now You Have Three
The Fox Show (Wednesdays at 9) has three super talented Canucks in the cast.
Patrick Gallagher of Westminster, B.C., shows his comedic skills as Ken Tanaka, the football coach who pines for Emma Pillsbury. Gallagher can also be seen late nights on Sundays in old episodes of Canadian drama Da Vinci's Inquest.
Quebecois Jessalyn Gilsig plays Terri Schuester, the wife of of the glee coach, and has an increasingly complicated hysterical pregnancy. Gilsig, last seen on Heroes, is no stranger to crazy, having been on Nip/Tuck.
Albertan Cory Monteith is the one to watch and listen to as Finn Hudson, one of the members of glee.

A Bar Where Everyone Knows Your Name Or Will At Least Call You Hoser
Canadian expats (and those that love us and our beer), you now have a home away from home where you can while away the hours. Ontario Bar, in Williamsburg, is the latest genius concept from Andrew Benedict and Scott Frederick (a Michigan native who would sneak over the border for booze) of Buttermilk, Boat and Great Lakes. The bar will feature Canadian beers and whiskey and a jukebox overflowing with tunes from the Mother Country.
559 Grand Street, near Lorimer (718) 384-2835. Open daily from 5:00 PM-4 AM

Kids In The Hall Reunite!
Your favourite troupe of men who like to dress up as women are currently filming an 8-part comic murder mystery series in Toronto. Death Comes to Town is the first television project for the gang since the show went off the air in 1995. The series was created by Bruce McCulloch and co-written by the quintet. It's being directed by Kelly Makin who oversaw the original and the KITH movie Brain Candy. It will air on the CBC in January. No word yet on where Yanks can catch it.
