Thank you Southcore! I have been in touch with them but they only serve condos with more than 200 units: http://www.fibrestream.ca/getfibre I used Fibrestream in my old condo, they are truly great. I just hope to find a provider than can serve smaller condos.

Our condo has a fantastic party room downtown that hasn't been used for years. The fee is too high for most residents while the rooftop and oversized private patios provide the residents with plenty of room for their friends. As the condo is looking for additional income, we may investigate the...

Thank you lmoss. Can you give us some insights into the trouble you had? How many units does the condo have? We have just under 100 units.

Thank you RBT! I contacted Beanfield but they told me they only serve condos with more than 200 units. Do you know of any company that will do this for smaller condos?

Any news on this? We're looking for fibre providers for smaller condos in the distillery district but it's slim pickings right now...

Hi, As a board member I've contacted 5-6 fibre cable providers and they only offer packages for the entire condo if you have fewer than 200 units. For a high-rise they draw the cable, then sell to each individual tenant. This means the condominium would have to pay for internet for all units...

Thank you DSC! To me it seems absurd to justify an expense of $100 per light bulb just while trying to compare offers that are created to be hard to compare. Some of the offers closer to $20.000 included just changing the bulbs, while more expensive ones had ballast changes included. Do you...

I'm a condo board member and we are trying to retrofit our building with LED's. We have received offers from 4 companies, with prices from $20.000-$40.000. Some mention 300 light bulbs, other 600. Are we getting ripped off? According to my math, a light bulb costs maximum $10 dollars and an...

It was a nightmare for most airbnb hosts with all the trashed units and parties. Especially the ones who didn't know there even was an all-star game.

There's a small chain of Thor-themed cafes in Toronto. I was silly enough to think a brand based on Scandinavian mythology would actually sell Scandinavian style products, but it's all Asian. They even have a viking theme evenings with Korean food :)

The word Canadian has the biggest strongest effect when it comes to cheese. Unfortunately it's very negative. I have to jump through hoops to get my Dutch Gouda, British Cheddar and Greek Feta. The Canadian producers have started hiding their canada logos so it's getting harder and harder to...

You have a Citymarket that opened up a week ago on your street, just north of king. I live on Blue Jays and usually walk to No Frills (east) or FreshCo (west) and take the street car back. No Frills has good prices and selection while FreshCo have a superior bread and cheese selection. Freshco...

The polish restaurants in Roncesvalles are really authentic. It may not be like a polish restaurant in poland but it's certainly like a polish family dinner in poland. The greek food is even better here than in greece. For years we used to have our gyros there but completely stopped going to...

With the craft distillery boom going on in Ontario, have you heard of any actual distilleries moving into the distillery district?

Torontovibe, thanks for a great video!
