Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: He likes medium - not the message. After finished his shift; a Canada Post letter carrier dozes on a bus shelter bench in the sunshine and balmy temperatures that blanketed Metro yesterday. More sunny weather is predicted for today; with a high of 14C (57F) expected. But the idyll may end tomorrow; which forecasters say will bring morning sunshine but cloud over by mid-afternoon; with evening rain likely.
