Video: Suicide Squad trailer shows why it might be one of the best films of 2016

With a great ensemble cast, a fresh story and characters that few people know about, and what appears to be non-stop action and stunt sequences (most of them shot in downtown, Toronto), Suicide Squad is gearing up to be one of the most anticipated films of 2016 and possibly one that could put DC back on the map before Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice. 

The two minute trailer gives the first glimpse of our antiheroes backed by Queen's immortal Bohemian Rhapsody, while most squad members show what they can do, others are shrouded in mystery. Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn and Will Smith's Deadshot are obviously the leads in this story but Jared Leto's divisive take on The Joker looks like something to look forward to as well.  Suicide Squad comes to theatres August 2016.

Judge: Uber can't be shut down in Toronto

Uber can't be shut own in Toronto as per a judge's 30 page ruling which cites that  the city of Toronto can't do anything to shut down Uber unless they change current bylaws. Uber is a globally disruptive transtportation service that makes getting a cab, limo, or SUV easier using and app on a smartphone and a toghtly integrated ratings standard for riders and drivers.

Superior Court Judge Sean Dunphy rejected arguments that Uber is required to have a taxi license in order to operate. The nature of Uber's service, which is carried out over smartphones and apps, separate it from traditional taxis, Judge Dunphy contends that Uber doesn't fit the definition of a taxi company and therefore current Judge: taxi regulations don't apply to it.
