    Theodore Too, the life-sized tugboat replica of a beloved TV character, is on “temporary leave” after it began to sink in St. Catharines, Ont. By Wednesday morning, it had remained partially submerged at the Port Weller Dry Docks Shipyard on Lake Ontario.

    Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston said on social media Theodore is a “true” icon of the province and shared words of encouragement for the boat’s recovery. “It’s sad to see our old friend in such a damaged state. I’m happy to read the owner is committed to repairing Theodore and a safe and successful refloat,” he said in the post on X. “Stay strong, Theodore!”

    I was really kind of expecting that we’d get a preview unfurl for the article, my headline makes a lot less sense without the context 😞

      Yeah, I usually edit post when I see this happens and quote a key paragraph or two in the body with the markdown quote feature (>), but it is a nuisance!

      Heck, the auto-populate post title feature doesn’t work for the The Tyee. Posters do us a service o7
