Christmas in the Square 2019 By: Jovin Tardif November 30, 2019  I love the holidays, but I also understand the bigger picture.  We are all extremely blessed this time of year.  We are making our list and checking it twice.  Everyone is running around on Black Friday looking for the latest gadgets, new fashion, great deals, and gifts for the family.  It's the most wonderful time of the year.  However, there are others that aren't as fortunate.  They could be in a tougher situation and they need your help.  After meeting the Salvation Army at Hope in the City, I was informed of another event that was happening in our city on Friday, November 29th, 2019 at Yonge-Dundas Square, 1 Dundas St E, Toronto.  Starting at 11:30am, you can head over to Yonge-Dundas Square, enjoy the festivities, a warm cup of hot chocolate and hang out with your friends at CTV and the Salvation Army.  You had the opportunity to participate in sing-alongs to Celebrate Christmas in the Square.  I also learne

Tv Series Review: Servant

Servant   Blinding Edge Pictures/Escape Artists/Dolphin Black Productions Apple Inc./Apple TV+ Express Review "Servant is creepy.  I guess it's what we should expect from M. Night Shyamalan.  The story follows Philadelphia married couple, Dorothy (Lauren Ambrose) and Sean Turner (Toby Kebbell), whose child (Jericho) is deceased.  Following the death of their son,  Dorothy uses a baby doll as a coping mechanism.  Before Jericho’s passing, she hired an 18-year-old Leanne Grayson (Nell Tiger Free) to be their nanny. Leanne is not what you think.  I am not actually sure how to explain her to you but she can turn a doll into a real baby.  How does she do it?  Who is she?"  Created by Tony Basgallop Written by Tony Basgallop, Nina Braddock, Ishana Night Shyamalan Starring Lauren Ambrose as Dorothy Turner (née Pearce) Toby Kebbell as Sean Turner Nell Tiger Free as Leanne Grayson Rupert Grint as Julian Pearce Sunita Mani as Vera Jack and James Hoogerwerff as Baby Jericho M

Hope in the City 2019  November 22, 2019  by: Jovin Tardif I was truly honoured to be a guest at The Hope in the City Breakfast this morning Friday, November 22, 2019, from 7:30AM–to 9:00AM.  Essentially, "Toronto’s business community joins together to kick off the holiday season, raise funds and awareness while celebrating the work of The Salvation Army."  I think Sasha Stoltz opened the door to let me in today because in my heart I believe after talking to me online that she loved my energy and positivity.  When I walked into Fairmont Royal York, I met Sasha in the lobby and I was informed to make my way to Level C.  On the elevator, you can hear the beautiful brass instruments playing in the background and when the doors open, it was like being a kid again. You get to experience love in a room while you listen to your favourite holiday music played by a fantastic brass band.  It was truly sensational.  After hearing the beautiful sounds, I made my way down the hall and I e

Interview with DJ / Producer / Artist 4Korners November 25, 2019  Today on What On What Good with Jovin Tardif, I am here with 4Korners. As you may or may not know, I am also a Toronto Raptors Fan.  So, I thought to myself, who would have a bird's eye view of the game and can tell me more about the 2019 NBA champions.  4Korners, that is who.  So I contacted him.  I hope he knows that I am a huge NBA fan.   I have been watching the NBA since I was a kid.  My favourite team growing up was the Chicago Bulls.  Michael Jordan was my hero.  Year after year, he would challenge everyone, anyone and would always come out on top.  It was so exciting. The landscape changed in 1995.  Toronto welcomed the Raptors.  I have been watching and cheering ever since. Alright, let's drop a beat 4Korners. 1. How did you build a relationship with the Raptors? This right here has been a crazy ride. I've been a Raptors fan since the beginning. I was a kid when the franchise began and I was actuall
