In another series of questions from fans, Kara Maxine Bieber was asked how if she likes what she has experienced thus far in Toronto.

While acknowledging that the city is lovely, she said that she and her husband, Shane Bieber, will save a lot of money because online shopping is limited in this side of North America:

"Truly such a great city, but I will say I'm pretty surprised by how much we can't get shipped here. About to save some $ from shopping being limited online; lol I miss @coterie diapers - I got a bunch in Miami & brought them back because nothing has compared."

Bieber and Kara will look forward to making the most during their stay with the franchise. He has a player option for next season before he becomes an unrestricted free agent in 2027.
