Big Smoked: Unsettled and disappointing time across Toronto’s pro sports scene
TORONTO — Hey Toronto sports fans: don’t let the disappointment, underperformance and unsettling times with your city’s professional teams get you down.
At least the Grey Cup champion Argonauts will soon be back in action. The CFL club appears to be the only bright light on the Toronto sporting landscape at the moment.
Dissatisfaction has extended across most franchises in the Ontario capital throughout the spring.
The Maple Leafs? Big expectations for the NHL team -

Injury-ravaged Toronto FC fighting fires on and off the field this season
TORONTO — It looked like business as usual at Toronto FC on Tuesday with Italian stars Lorenzo Insigne and Federico Bernardeschi both training.
But there was likely plenty of action behind closed doors as the beleaguered franchise fought fires on and off the field, dealing with rumours about Insigne’s state of mind and a frustrated outburst from Bernardeschi after Saturday’s night’s 1-0 loss in Austin dropped Toronto to 2-5-7 in last place in the MLS Eastern Conference.

OTTAWA — The military police watchdog is launching a probe into how investigators handled a historical sexual-assault allegation against a senior officer who was a central figure in Canada’s COVID-19 vaccine rollout.
A Quebec court acquitted Maj.-Gen. Dany Fortin last December of one count of sexual assault, after the military police investigated the allegation from 1988 and then passed the case along to provincial prosecutors.
Fortin claims he has been the victim of a biased investi -

OTTAWA — Special rapporteur David Johnston said Tuesday that a formal inquiry into foreign interference is not needed, that public hearings should be held as part of his own mandate.
