'I offered my shoes': Pin trading is the 'unofficial sport' of the Canada Games
Pin trading is big at The Canada Games, like really big. Pegged as the unofficial sport of the Games; athletes trade and collect them for fun, for memories and for clout. There's also a Pin Guide on the official Canada Games app where you can keep track of the ones you collect. So, what's the craziest thing you'd trade for a rare pin?

Fringe Review: 1 Small Lie a bit of bravura storytelling from Martin Dockery
1 Small Lie: Martin Dockery 5 stars out of 5 Stage 2, Next Act Backstage Theatre, 10330 84 Ave. That's how it always starts, right? Just a slight prevarication, a tiny falsehood, whether well intentioned or not. New York-based performer Martin Dockery's initial fib sets off a chain of events that takes his most recent monologue into James M Cain territory, a hard-boiled tale of small-town avarice and paranoia. Set and precisely timed to an atmospheric soundtrack that pulses with menace, Dockery guides you through early pandemic-era Montauk, N.Y., where a wounded deer, a duffel bag full of money, and a beautiful but mysterious next-door neighbor add up to the stuff of nightmares.

This is the kind of performance that reminds you just how good a Fringe play can be. As funny as it is suspenseful, 1 Small Lie is a bit like if Spadling Gray steeped himself in the novels of Jim Thompson. The question will pop up in your head at some point: Did any of this really happen? As Dockery says at the very beginning, 'don't worry about it.'
