5 Breathtaking Patios To Distract You From The Fact The Chinese Government Just Sentenced A Canadian Citizen To Death

Lifestyle - Don’t let the fact that the Chinese government has upheld the death sentence of Robert Schellenberg, while also sentencing Michael Spavor to 11 years in prison during a closed door trial, stop you from enjoying the last days of summer! Sure over 60 countries have condemned China’s decision to imprison Canadians and tension continues to grow between the two governments, but there’s still 3 weeks left of summer! Here’s the top 5 Toronto patios where you can soak up the sun while we await an impending international incident!

Toronto Beach Club

This sprawling lakeside getaway is just a stones throw away from Woodbine Beach. Enjoy oysters and ice-cold cocktails while you watch the beautiful beach sunset while being sombrely reminded of the fact that currently the best solution Canada has to deescalate the situation is boycotting the 2022 Olympics.

Gusto 501

This Corktown location of the popular King West Italian joint offer’s wood-fired pizzas, $1/oz wine and a majestic rooftop patio that Michael Spavor probably would have enjoyed if he wasn’t caught in the middle of a pissing match between two countries.

Bar Pompette

The casual, laid-back College Street spot offers an all-day cafe, an impressive wine list, and small plates all tucked away in a quiet back patio. Sip on a glass of Sancerre while you pontificate on whether or not you’re fit to serve in the military if this crisis continues to escalate.

Casa Loma

Casa Loma’s garden patio allows you to sit amongst the well-groomed gardens while taking in the beautiful architecture of the castle, which probably doesn’t have any jail cells within it unlike China’s Dandong region which currently has 3 Canadian citizens imprisoned there.

The Porch

This iconic Toronto spot offer’s plus-sized cocktails and one of the best views of the city’s skyline. Watch other patio-goers take pics on their Huewai phones and be reminded of the fact that this entire crisis stems from US imperialism.
