Just what we need another cannabis store downtown! But I suppose almost anything is better than a string of empty store fronts.
 
Well probably not as many as there used to be, I think some closed because there were too many but I do wish there was more variety of things downtown.

We don't need more cannabis stores, liquor stores, shoppers drug marts and subways downtown. There are a lot of other things we do need to make it more livable for a variety of people unless all you need to get by is cannabis.

Seemingly less than the amount of liquor stores despite alcohol being a far bigger issue.
 
So Calgary planers and economic development turned the East Village into an Alt Hotel and a cluster of up scale high rise condo. Edmonton planers and economic development have the opportunity to turn the Quarters into cannabis shops, indoor self storage, and urban agriculture. Here come the excuses to explain things away.

Does everything our city planners touch turn to crud? It sort of seems so.
