Show jumper Tiffany Foster’s desire to ride a winner deepens when she is competing at Thunderbird Show Park in Langley.

, Jacqueline Steffens of Harriston, Ont., and Victoria’s Ali Ramsay will face off against top national show jumping teams from Ireland, Mexico, U.S.A., Israel, and Australia at the $400,000 Longines FEI Nations Cup event at tbird. Canada won the Longines FEI Nations Cup that was held pre-pandemic at Thunderbird in 2019.

“Tiffany’s roots are here, so it’s coming full circle,” said Chris Pack, the president and operations manager of tbird. “Tiffany really is a role model for every rider growing up in B.C. To see you can go from being a working student to the top of the sport is amazing, encouraging. It is the ultimate story.”

Canada’s Eric Lamaze riding Fine Lady 5 during the BMO Nations’ Cup at the Spruce Meadows Masters in Calgary on Saturday, September 11, 2021.“Eric brings a whole new level of enthusiasm to the team and his energy is infectious. His health has forced an early retirement for his riding, but I think we are all benefiting from him immersing himself in his new role,” said Foster.

Show's over for famed cabaret show at France's LidoIt's the end of an era for the famed Lido cabaret on Paris' Champs-Elysees. Amid financial troubles and changing times, the venue's new corporate owner is ditching most of the Lido's staff and its high-kicking, high-glamour dance shows -- which date back decades and inspired copycats from Las Vegas to Beirut -- in favour of more modest musical revues. Never heard of it. I guess it wasn't that famous. After all. 🥸

Opinion | Bike lanes in car-loving Berlin show change can happen where there’s political will — even in TorontoBike lanes in car-loving Berlin show change can happen where there’s political will — even in Toronto. To make “pop-up” bike lanes permanent in cities requires safe car speeds, good signage, proper management and enforcement. Opinion by shawnmicallef shawnmicallef It also requires cyclists be licensed and regulated and forced to obey the rules of the road. Cyclists in Toronto think everything is in their favour. No respect is shown to pedestrians or vehicles. They need to be licensed and insured. shawnmicallef Oh ya fo' sure eh...you're totally going to see me pedal in Jan and Feb at -25°C on any Toronto street...implement this where weather can sustain it year round. What 2 seasons does Toronto get? If you didn't know it's winter and construction...go figure shawnmicallef They need roads of a decent size.
