Quand vient le temps de rendre ton lit un peu plus douillet à bas prix, magasiner en ligne sur Amazon Canada reste l’une des façons les plus simples de trouver des draps qui valent vraiment la peine. En quelques clics, tu peux comparer une foule d’options et dénicher des ensembles aussi agréables que pratiques. La compagnie de vente en ligne demeure d’ailleurs l’une des plateformes les plus populaires pour ce genre d’achat, en grande partie grâce aux milliers d’avis laissés par la clientèle, qui aident à faire un choix éclairé. Et si tu veux en avoir plus pour ton argent, le moment est bien choisi : certains ensembles de draps populaires sont offerts avec des rabais pouvant atteindre 38 % selon la taille et la couleur.

Classé au 1er rang des meilleurs vendeurs dans la catégorie Maison, cet ensemble a trouvé preneur plus de 6 000 fois en un mois, toutes tailles confondues, et affiche une note moyenne de 4,4 étoiles sur 5 selon 443 352 avis. Autant dire qu’il ne passe pas inaperçu. La fiche du produit ne fait d’ailleurs pas dans la modestie : elle promet des draps « parmi les plus doux et les plus abordables que vous puissiez trouver ». Rien de moins.
On l’a donc mis à l’épreuve pour voir s’il est à la hauteur de sa réputation.
L'ensemble de draps trois à quatre morceaux de CGK Unlimited
Les draps au premier rang des meilleurs vendeurs sur Amazon et les options de couleurs.
L’ensemble est offert en sept tailles, du lit une place au très grand lit californien, en passant par le lit une place très long et le split king. Côté look, tu as l’embarras du choix avec plus de 60 couleurs, dont quelques motifs. Chaque ensemble comprend un drap plat, un drap contour et deux taies d’oreiller (une seule pour la taille une place). Le drap contour a une poche assez profonde pour s’adapter aux matelas d’environ 40,6 centimètres (16 pouces) d’épaisseur.
Selon la fiche du produit, le tissu est fait de microfibre brossée qu’on décrit comme très douce, respirante, fraîche et infroissable.
Est-ce que ça vaut l'achat?
Les draps populaires achetés sur Amazon.

Comme la majorité des personnes qui ont laissé un avis sur la page Amazon du produit, j’ai tout de suite été satisfaite en ouvrant le colis. Les couleurs et les motifs correspondaient exactement aux photos en ligne et, même avant le premier lavage, la douceur du tissu sautait aux yeux.
J’avais d’ailleurs commandé un deuxième ensemble sur Amazon au même moment, auprès d’une autre boutique, parce que j’avais un style bien précis en tête. Il m’avait coûté une centaine de dollars de plus, et ça a été une vraie déception : le tissu était rugueux et, même s’il s’est assoupli après plusieurs lavages, il reste beaucoup moins confortable que celui du meilleur vendeur.
Il faut aussi savoir que les draps populaires sont plutôt minces. C’est donc une belle option pour une literie d’été ou si tu aimes dormir au frais.
Chez moi, ce sont mes ados qui utilisent l’ensemble de CGK Unlimited. Ils étaient censés l’alterner avec leurs anciens draps, mais disons que ce plan a vite pris le bord : ils refusent catégoriquement de faire la rotation.
Je peux donc confirmer que les promesses faites en ligne tiennent la route… sauf pour le côté infroissable. Mes ados laissent souvent le drap plat en boule au pied du lit (pourquoi détestent-ils autant les draps plats?), et des plis finissent par se former, comme on peut le voir sur la photo ci-dessus. Rien de bien dramatique, cela dit : si tu évites de les laisser traîner, tu devrais avoir un meilleur résultat.
Pour le prix, la qualité et le grand choix d’options, c’est sans doute l’une des façons les plus simples de dormir confortablement sans casser ton petit cochon.

Waterloo researcher uses microbes to eat methane
The University of Waterloo team is testing microbes to cut methane from aging landfills.
Imagine tiny organisms that eat our pollution and help reduce emissions. This might sound like something straight out of science fiction, but university researchers are making it a reality.Laura Hug, a researcher at the University of Waterloo, is turning to an unexpected ally buried deep within waste: microbes. These tiny organisms are proving powerful tools in helping in the fight against methane emissions from landfills, which account for roughly 17 per cent of national methane emissions.
In any given landfill, a microscopic war is underway. Some microbes generate methane, while others consume it. Hugs’ research explores ways to use methane-eating microbes to reduce “legacy” methane, the ongoing, long-term gas emissions produced by decades-old organic waste buried deep underground.
“We see organisms that are able to oxidize that methane [break down the molecule],” said Hug, adding that the microbes that produce methane and feed on it are very separate from each other.
“They never see each other. The organisms generating methane are buried in the waste”
Hug leads a research team called Mitigation of Methane Emission Hot-Spots from Municipal Landfills. Her work blends soil science and environmental microbiology to better map and understand emissions from Canada’s landfills. A core focus of the project is reducing legacy and poorly quantified methane leaks from older or active waste sites.
For more than ten years, Hug has been studying landfills across Ontario and the United States. Her lab maintains a decade-long collaboration with the Region of Waterloo’s Division of Waste to collect field samples. However, collecting data at a landfill is delicate; doing it incorrectly can accidentally release the very gas they are trying to track.
“What we do is we sample the liquid that builds up in the landfill. It’s called leachate, and it is developed by organic matter breaking down and rainwater infiltrating,” explained Hug.
Beyond methane, Hug and her team use these leachate samples to develop tools that can transform other pervasive environmental contaminants using natural microbial processes.
“There are organisms that can degrade chlorinated solvents. Things like dry cleaning fluid or degreasing fluid for planes, or [chemicals] electronics are dipped into before they’re sealed, and a lot of older landfills have legacy contamination of these solvents, and they’re toxic,” said Hug.
“They partially degrade pretty readily. But there’s only a few organisms that we’ve found that are able to degrade them to a completely non-toxic end product.”
A more precise understanding of these microbes allows Hug’s team to identify which species are most efficient at destroying methane. The goal is to use these organisms to engineer more effective landfill barriers.
“The idea would be that you would be able to mix these into cover soils and put them onto landfills as you were closing and capping them, so that you were kind of starting from a position of this is your enhanced capacity for methane oxidation at a landfill from day zero,” explained Hug.
When it comes to managing aging landfills, physical engineering options are often limited and expensive, which makes microbes all the more promising as a solution.
“They don’t have a lot of physical engineering options for reducing that methane, but that methane is going to be generated and it will work its way out of the system eventually. So, having more effective cover soils would be a really important layer for controlling methane emissions at these aging landfill [sites],” noted Hug.

CPKC Holiday Train is travelling through Ontario and these are the stops across the province
You can see the festive train in Toronto and the GTA!
David Carey | Dreamstime
The magical CPKC Holiday Train will illuminate cities, towns and communities all over Canada with festive lights.
A lot of stops are scheduled in Ontario during November and December, so you might be able to see the lit-up train cars where you live.
There are actually two holiday trains, a Canadian train and a U.S. train, but each has a route that spans both countries.
During the 2026 holiday train season, 182 stops are scheduled in both countries, including more than 100 in Canada and 40 in Ontario.
Each train will travel thousands of miles throughout the 32-day journey, so some events will happen during the day. But the holiday-themed boxcar lights will stay on as the trains travel on the CPKC rail network, even during the day.
All of the CPKC Holiday Train events in Canada are free to attend, but food and monetary donations for local food banks will be accepted at each stop.
The stops in Ontario will also feature musical performances by American Authors, Tyler Shaw, Magic! and MARIS.
At each stop, the train arrives in front of the crowd, and the boxcar door lowers to reveal a stage for the musical performance.
The bands and artists perform classic and modern holiday songs and their original songs, then the boxcar door closes, and the train goes to the next stop on the route.
