Frank, when you hear about -- we have been watching the wnba now, especially with caitlin clark being drafted, when you hear about a team making it to toronto, what are your thoughts about how this will be received here in the city? >> Frank: I think that it will be incredibly successful. We have already seen that with the pwhl. Women's sports are growing. If you look at minor sports right now, female soccer, female basketball, female hockey. In minor sports is where they are growing the most. So it should be fairly well supported. We all knew that this was going to happen, but today it becomes official. >> Tammie: sportsnet sources confirmed it last week. Cbc was the first to report that this was indeed happening. Now the announcement comes this morning at 9:00. The question we are asking our viewers out there is about the wnba on how you feel, how excited are you to have a wnba team come here to toronto. Let us know. Have your say. You can let us know online by e-mailing us feedback at breakfasttelevision.ca, at breakfast tv on twitter or x.

A lot of people were excited to go see not just female sports, but professional women's basketball here on this side of the border. And I think that is what sparked it. As soon as you saw that response from just that one game it was like okay, we can do this. With the raptors gaining more support throughout the city, it is amazing to see now that a team for toronto, and for the women, being brought here to the

city. Frank, we will check in with you now -- >> Frank: it is a team for canada. Right? The raptors is basically a team for canada. The blue jays is a team for canada. And now this will be a team for canada as well. >> Tammie: it is pretty cool. And what is not cool is the -- what is also cool is the weather. Hopefully this nice weather continues? >> Frank: do you want to see the sun right now? >> Tammie: I do want to see the sun. All of the time. >> Frank: there it is before your big head was blocking it? Is that what you were doing? >> Frank: yes. [ Laughter ] >> Frank: hasa. My big head was blocking it. My head, bigger than the sun. May be even bigger than my ego. Let us look at the weather right now. And see what we have weatherwise. A daytime high of 25. Cooler this morning. We got rid of the humidity. Wind southwest, westerly at 20 kilometres per hour. Tomorrow, sunshine continues. And joy that, because as we get in to the weekend, clout -- cloud cover increases. Unsettled on saturday, on sunday dry conditions, but monday back in to wet weather. And more springlike conditions below seasonal. Where we see monday and tuesday hand in to wednesday, highs of 18 to 17 degrees. Mainly overcast on wednesday, tuesday, some isolated showers. A fresh feel outdoors today. It's great to be active outdoors. I will send it over to you, stephanie henry. >> Stephanie: nothing but smiles over here, frankie. The problems we had on the northbound ddp have cleared away. It was construction, and the right lane, approaching york mills, but it's gone and things are back to moving while leaving the safety. The smile goes away if you are entering the city. Let us take you to the ddp right now. That is the picture moving in to downtown on the cell phone 404 ddp. The latest approaching shepherd, when you hit the don -- don valley parkway and that breaks up as you move towards the gardiner. But not a great start to the morning. Also if you're heading to the 401 end leaving durham, we have delays on the 401 from brock street approaching salem. Quite slow approaching markham to kennedy in the express, victoria park in the collectors. And we have problems on the go right now on the westbound 401. The alan transferred to the collectors is completely blocked. There was a vehicle facing the wrong wayay and now emergency crews are blocking the area altogether. We are watching this problem in this issue on the westbound 401 approaching alan in the express right lane. Blocked bebeuse of a collision. We have some crews on scene. The 401 is solid from the 404 in the express and collector lanes. Taking you to the toronto bound qew, we have delays approaching nikola tesla over to brant. It is all volume through that stretch. Burlington and oakville is a good one. You will face delays once you hit the city on the eastbound gardiner from kipling in the express heading in to downtown as you make your way through that long term construction. It is going to take you a long time to make your way through it. After a devastating accident, trust the lawyers at thomson rogers to guide you pick from the hospital room to the court room.
