$500,000 bike?
OK, this isn't a typo or an English error, but it's so egregiously (albeit intentionally) wrong I couldn't resist...
The headline would have you believe it's a story about a bicycle that costs $500,000. The story itself reveals it's about a bike design concept and prototype that raised over $500,000 through a Kickstarter funding campaign. The article suggests the actual retail price of the bike will be in the magnitude of a few thousand dollars.
Shame on the Star for misleading readers to generate page views.

What is government's roll in society?
We've heard about Sarah Thomson's trading in her "French role" for dreadlocks. Now the Star is reporting that government has a "roll" to play in helping business.
The Star is on a roll here! (Or should I say "on a role"?!)

We was kicked off the train
Unless the Star is experimenting in Ebonics, it was probably Tim Hudak himself who was kicked off a subway train during a campaign event.

North of the boarder?
Boarder: a paying houseguest.
Border: a line separating two political or geographical areas, especially countries,
Confusing these terms is a common mistake among elementary school children.
