The Audit A penny-bypenny reckoning of the month in money

An appraisal of the month in money

$1.68

Sale price for a dozen ears of corn at No Frills, which caused chaos when deal seekers started shoving each other to get their hands on discount cobs.

$100

Price of Izakaya Ju’s new J-Town Supreme—speculated to be the city’s most expensive sandwich to date—made with A5 Miyazaki Wagyu beef and foie gras.

$1,000

Monthly payout offered by Toronto-based company AHLOT to cannabis connoisseurs who are willing to sample new strains of fancy marijuana.

$2,346

Amount paid by a Toronto couple for two seats at Korean pop band BTS’s Hamilton concert. They’ve since joined a class action lawsuit against Ticketmaster after a Toronto Star and CBC investigation accused the company of overcharging unsuspecting buyers.

$1,750,000

Compensation sought by Jordan Peterson in a defamation suit against Wilfrid Laurier University (his second this year), which he filed after the school claimed he censored free speech on gender identity. The first suit was filed in June, when staffers allegedly compared Peterson to Hitler.

$11,900,000

Cost of renovating the Junction Triangle’s Tower Automotive Building into the new Museum of Contemporary Art, which, after three years of construction fraught with delays, is finally open.

$59,000,000

Listing price of Canada’s most expensive home on the market—a massive lakefront estate in Oakville that belonged to retired beer company executive Hugo Powell—which went up for sale in September.

$200,000,000

Amount invested by Uber in a new engineering lab in Toronto. The research hub is supposed to reduce self-driving vehicle crashes, like the fatal one that happened in Arizona earlier this year.
