Five things you need to know

1. Canadian killed in the London attacks identified as Christine Archibald from Castlegar, B.C.

The Canadian that was tragically killed in Saturday’s terrorist attacks in London has been identified. Christine Archibald had recently moved to Europe to live with her fiancé and the two were visiting London for the weekend when the attacks happened. Archibald, who was from Castlegar, was working at a homeless shelter in Calgary before she moved.


2. The Warriors are now 14-0 in the playoffs after winning game two

Can anyone stop Steph Curry, Kevin Durant and the Golden State Warriors? It really doesn’t look like it after the team delivered another dominant performance to take a 2-0 lead over the Cleveland Cavaliers in the NBA Finals. The series now moves to Ohio for games three and four.


3. Man mowing lawn during tornado says he was keeping an eye on it

The internet was taken by storm over the weekend by a man who continued to calmly mow his lawn while a massive tornado swirled in the background. According to the Canadian Press, Theunis Wessels’ wife, Cecilia, took the photo and the pair were “keeping an eye on it.” No tornado will stop Theunis from doing his chores!


4. People are wondering where Usher was at One Love Manchester

The One Love Manchester benefit concert took place on Sunday and was a smashing success for a number of reasons. People were a little confused, however, at the absence of Usher. The singer tweeted a link to the show’s live stream on Sunday, but never showed up to perform. So far, no reason has been given for his absence.


5. Sidney Crosby didn’t say that P.K. Subban has bad breath

In case it went over your head, Sidney Crosby didn’t say that P.K. Subban had bad breath. Crosby says he didn’t say anything of the sort to Subban and that the Predators defenceman was just making that up for the attention. For most hockey fans that know Subban, that news comes as no surprise.
