What a charming looking fellow. He's got sort of Zoolander thing going on with his lips. I wonder what his sentence will be? A few years in prison, then back onto the streets again, surely?

I don't think getting (likely) convicted on two 1st degree murder charges gets you back on the streets in a "few years".
Anyways, I'm glad they found the guy and I'm glad it wasn't a random killing.
My kids are super excited about the new Dollarama since they get lots of arts and craft supplies (stickers, crayons, etc.) at great prices.It really surprises me that the other discount stores weren't able to survive there. I hope Dollarama has a winning formula, because it really is a great place for a lot of things (it always amazes me what you can find there for a buck or two).
Dollarama is definitely the best outcome for that location. A Bulk Barn would have also been acceptable. Now if only Loblaws would buy the entire property that holds the Shoppers Drugmart and No Frills, demolish it and build a Super Centre (mini?) or Loblaws...
Parliament Street restaurants are getting punny; "Pho U" is opening soon in a long abandoned space on the west side, just south of Gerrard.
A Loblaws? wouldn't that just be a place for rich white people to shop?
What I'd like is a Book City. Two years ago I wrote to them with listings of retail space on Parliament and with demographic data and info to connect them with the BIA. They replied that they're busy with their current locations and have no plans to expand into Cabbagetown.
We have enough bars and restaurants, and are close to saturation with cafes. What we need is continued growth in non-food retail.
I'm curious, would you say parliament street has gentrified over the years or remained fairly stable ? (i.e. more of a mix of low / high end stores).
What about Cabbagetown proper, home prices that is ? Have they been going up / down or remaining stable ?
Oh is that the case ? I mean just from taking a look on MLS the home prices seem to be in the upper hundred of thousands. Just not sure if they've been going up or down.
