Canada school bus driver who nicknamed vehicle ‘Lolita's Line,' wore bizarre schoolgirl outfit on the job fired after viral post
In the video, the driver lingered just outside the bus door dressed in a full lolita costume with knee-high stockings and a skirted pink schoolgirl uniform complete with a gaudy bow.
3 A bus driver in Canada was fired after they were filmed dropping off children in a schoolgirl uniform.

A nearby group of adults berated the driver for their obscene outfit choice and even stranger sign pasted on the vehicle.
'You picked up the kids dressed like that?' one person in the video asked. The driver, seeing no issue, just answered 'Yep.'
3 The school bus had a sign that read 'Lolita Line'.

'Why do you call your bus the Lolita Line?' another concerned person asked repeatedly as the driver just sauntered back into the yellow school bus and drove off.
'Hide your children! Look up the meaning of Lolita and you will understand soon enough! Normalizing [pedophilia] here in Woodbridge disguised as inclusivity! Canada has fallen and time to act,' the woman who recorded the video wrote.
While the term 'Lolita' is often associated with the Japanese subculture and style that takes inspiration from Victorian-era fashion and meshes it with Rococo art, it first originated in the 1955 novel 'Lolita' by Vladimir Nabokov.
The Nabokovian Lolita refers to the novel's protagonist, 12-year-old Dolores Haze, who is groomed, kidnapped and repeatedly sexually abused by the adult narrator for two years. It was inspired by the real-life story of Florence 'Sally' Horner's disappearance after a friend's father and convicted pedophile abducted the then-11-year-old in 1948.
Sex predator Jeffrey Epstein's private jet, which he and his guests allegedly used to have sex with underage girls while traveling, was nicknamed the 'Lolita Express'.
3 The bus driver was canned just a week later.

The York Catholic District School Board, which contracts buses including the 'Lolita Line' assured parents that it took swift action after staff brought the matter and viral video to their attention.
'The company quickly addressed this situation with its employee, and the driver will no longer provide busing to and from the school. The company has assured the YCDSB that this would not be an issue at any YCDSB school going forward,' a spokesperson for the school board wrote in a statement obtained by the National Post.
'All bus drivers in Ontario are required to pass a Vulnerable Sector Check with their local police department and they receive extensive training before transporting students. The YCDSB followed all of its child protection procedures after this incident.'
The Vulnerable Sector Check is an additional background search done by police to ensure potential employees in spaces with authority over children don't have any prior sexual offenses, according to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
The spokesperson added that in Ontario, school busing is provided by third-party companies.

Why Millennials Love Subtitles
Fellow millennials, I need to get your honest opinion on something. How do you *really* feel about having the subtitles on when you watch TV? Reddit user Some_Kinda_Username recently posed this same question, and people couldn't help but rave endlessly about how great closed captions are. While I might not be a fan of reading while watching my favorite TV show or movie, others just can't get enough! Here's what they had to say on this polarizing topic: "I love me some subtitles! Warning, though, they are addictive. Once you get used to them, it's nearly impossible, or at least quite infuriating, to watch anything without them." "I was using subtitles before it was cool." "Sound mixing is a lost art. Gotta make sure everyone hears the explosions over the actors advancing the plot by whispering." "I love subtitles! Everyone in my house starts talking the second the shows we want to watch come on. I feel that subtitles are a nice compromise. They talk during the show, but I can still enjoy it by reading the captions. Problem solved!" "Subtitles are real-time spoilers." "My late wife was Romanian, and while her English was perfect and much better than mine (I'm British/Canadian), she always wanted subtitles to help her follow along. Something about her brain's ability to translate speech was more tiring than reading. Now I keep them on by default." "I can't watch anything without subtitles anymore. 😭" "I usually have my kids or wife trying to talk to me at the same time I'm watching anything, so if I want to know what's going on, I have to have them on." "How else am I supposed to hear my show over the crunching of this bowl of cereal I'm eating as my fourth meal?" "My husband got me into the whole 'subtitles or bust' thing, and now my anxiety levels elevate if someone is watching something and there are no subtitles." "I have a household of people, and it helps when they don't want to quiet down." "Having been hard of hearing my whole life, the fact that we now have captions on nearly all streaming media has been a godsend for me." "I want it on, and my wife wants it off. It's a real battle." "90% of the time I watch shows or movies, the kids are asleep. Subtitles are mandatory when playing at a low volume." "I feel like I miss too many things without captions." "It's like lowering the volume on your radio when you're lost driving around. I know I'm not the only one." "I've been using subtitles since the '90s. You can pry them from my cold, dead hands." "But like, why does the TV sound different when the subtitles are off?" OK, now I need to know what you feel about this:

Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle fans are not too happy about Channing Tatum being cast in the English-language version of the anime film
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. As new anime movie Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle continues to rule over the Japanese box office, Channing Tatum's casting in the upcoming English-language version has left many Demon Slayer fans confused. The Deadpool & Wolverine star has been cast as Keizo in the English dubbed version of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle. However, many anime fans believe that the casting is not fair to other voice actors in the industry, and feel that Taum has only been cast because he is a big Hollywood name. "There are some [English-language voice actors] who are not happy that Channing Tatum was cast in the latest Demon Slayer movie... and the complaints are 100% valid," said one fan on Twitter (X). "Any VA would and should feel slighted when a big-name actor is cast in an anime role, especially in a movie as big as Infinity Castle." It seems like other fans feel the same, as one replied, "Love Channing Tatum... I just feel this is kinda a slap in the face to everyone else." Another added, "This might potentially be the start of US dubbing companies phasing out actual experienced anime dub actors for Hollywood talent. And that would be a very bad thing." However, other Demon Slayer heads feel that Tatum, who is a fan of the series, deserves a chance. After all, the star is only in a minor role. "But what if he does a completely fine and normal job at it?" pointed out one fan. It is important to note that big actors being cast in anime projects is no new thing, with Robert Pattinson starring in The Boy and the Heron, and Star Wars actor Mark Hamill appearing in the anime series Immortal Grand Prix, just to name two examples. Tatum joins the original English dub voice cast from the Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba anime series, including Zach Aguilar as Tanjiro Kamado, Abby Trott as Nezuko Kamado, Aleks Le as Zenitsu Agatsuma, Bryce Papenbrook as Inosuke Hashibira, Johnny Yong Bosch as Giyu Tomikoa and Erika Harlacher as Shinobu Kocho. Directed by Haruo Sotozaki, the movie is the first of an upcoming trilogy based on the Infinity Castle arc from the Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba manga. The film follows demon slayer Tanjiro Kamado as he faces his biggest challenge yet when he is plunged into a demon's stronghold known as the Infinity Castle in a bid to save the head of the Corps. Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle will hit US and UK cinemas on September 12, 2025.

Sullivan's Crossing Season 4: Release date rumors, cast updates and plot – Everything we know so far
Fans of Sullivan's Crossing can't stop buzzing about the cozy Canadian drama that's taken Netflix by storm. After a jaw-dropping Season 3 finale, everyone's eager to know what's next for Maggie, Cal, and the rest of the Timberlake crew. Here's the latest scoop on Season 4, packed with release date speculation, cast updates, and plot predictions to keep the excitement alive. Sullivan's Crossing Season 4 Potential Release Date Nobody's dropped an official release date for Season 4 yet, but there's enough tea to spill based on how the show's been rolling out. Sullivan's Crossing has a pretty steady groove. Season 1 kicked off on CTV in March 2023, then hit The CW in October 2023. Season 2 showed up on CTV in April 2024, followed by The CW in October 2024. Season 3 kept the pattern, landing on CTV in April 2025 and The CW in May 2025. If the trend holds, Season 4 should pop up on CTV around April or May 2026, with The CW airing it a bit later, maybe June 2026. Word on the street—or rather, posts on X—says filming started in Halifax, Nova Scotia, in August 2025 and should wrap by November. That keeps things on track for a 2026 premiere. Netflix fans, you'll probably get Season 4 around August 2026, a few months after The CW run, since Season 3 dropped on Netflix in August 2025. Sullivan's Crossing Season 4 Expected Cast The Sullivan's Crossing crew feels like family at this point, and most of the faves should be back for Season 4. Here's the rundown on who's likely strolling through Timberlake: Morgan Kohan as Maggie Sullivan Chad Michael Murray as Cal Jones Scott Patterson as Sully Sullivan Andrea Menard as Edna Cranebear Tom Jackson as Frank Cranebear Lindura as Sydney Shandon Reid Price as Rob Shandon Dakota Taylor as Rafe Vadas Amalia Williamson as Lola Gunderson Cindy Sampson as Jane Kate Vernon as Helen Culver Marcus Rosner as Liam Davies Sullivan's Crossing Season 4 Potential Plot That Season 3 finale on June 22, 2025, had jaws on the floor. Liam Davies rolling into town, calling himself Maggie's husband? Total plot twist! Season 4's gotta unpack that mess and more. Here's what's probably cooking based on the finale and the show's knack for romance and heart: Maggie and Cal: Love on the Rocks? Maggie and Cal were finally getting their groove on in Season 3, with Maggie settling into Timberlake and planning her own clinic. Then Liam drops the 'husband' bomb. Is it legit, or is there some wild backstory? Season 4's bound to dig into Maggie's past, maybe flashing back to what went down with Liam. This could put her and Cal's romance through the wringer. Fans on X are already freaking out about whether these two can survive another hurdle. Their chemistry's too good to fizzle, but it's gonna be a bumpy ride. Sully's Big Adventure Sully shocked everybody by deciding to head to Ireland with Helen. Season 4 might follow him across the pond, showing how he's handling this new chapter. Will he come back to the campground, or is Maggie taking over for good? His journey's gonna tug at the heartstrings, especially after all he's been through with Maggie. Edna and Frank's Healing Vibes Edna's brain surgery was a nail-biter, and Maggie pulled it off like a champ. Now, Edna and Frank's story will probably focus on soaking up life and leaning on each other. Their scenes always bring the warm fuzzies, balancing out the heavier drama. More Timberlake Drama The rest of the crew's got plenty going on. Sydney and Rafe's relationship is a hot mess—will they make it to the altar, or crash and burn? Lola and Jacob's flirty vibes could turn into something more. Rob and Jane might be headed for wedding bells, too. The campground itself could face trouble, maybe money issues or some shady new character stirring the pot. And Maggie's clinic? That's a whole new adventure, mixing her doctor skills with small-town life. Ahmedabad Plane Crash
