Waterproof and breathable running jacket?

I'm remembering a run I had in the spring in my "water resistant" shell and how cold I was... As we get closer to fall, does anyone have any recommendations for waterproof and breathable running jackets? Preferably ones that would work to layer for bike commuting as well. TY!

A longread about pawpaw restoration in Ontario

I have a tiny Toronto yard, but one of the subjects is making me want to try planting pawpaws from seed (though he started his in 1994!)

"He says he’s fortunate that his neighbour has also naturalized their front yard because the pawpaw-root shoots have started to spread. 'The yard is all pawpaws, snowberry, cedar and other native bushes and wildflowers that used to grow here.' The fruits of his labour get parcelled out, first to the raccoons and squirrels, who knock half of the pawpaws to the ground before they ripen, and the rest to friends and family – or donated to public events in an abundant year." https://www.begiant.ca/stories/places/pawpaw-fruit-restoration

Horses Atelier MIC alternatives?

Horses Atelier was my absolute favourite Canadian fashion line, but I'm heartbroken it closed in April 2026. Yes, it was expensive, but I would try and buy just a couple of special pieces a year – conscious consumption, and made in Canada! 

 Does anyone have suggestions for similar made-in-Canada clothing lines? Thinking: timeless, minimalist cool-girl vibes, enduring quality.
