Maple Leaf Diane & Josh: Vancouver family weekend Joshua Jackson is in Vancouver shooting Fringe. The weather has been great the last few weeks, finally. June was awful. July was sh-t too.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Kristin Kreuk’s leather vest When I was growing up, the must-have wardrobe item was a leather vest from Roots. Remember?
