    City Workers Strike 2009

    What is windsor doing with their garbage? Piling it up or are they disposing of it somehow? I say we use it to build a bridge to Toronto Island!

    City Workers Strike 2009

    After a strike is settled, does the Union usually get compensated for the hours that they were striking? (like a retroactive pay)?

    Best place to look for retail space for lease?

    OK, that was the high end of my range which I guess I shouldn't have put down. I never said "prime area close to ppl with $$$"...just "close to people with $$$". Perhaps it wasn't clear but I meant if there is a space that is CLOSE to good areas but may not be a technically "prime" street...

    Insurance rates going up drastically.

    That idea of a TTC metropass discount doesn't make any sense to me and I don't see how that proves that you use your car less. You can drive a lot and still have a metropass for other situations, or you can just borrow a friends TTC metropass to register with the insurance co as a loophole...

    City Workers Strike 2009

    Its not in my neighborhood, I just heard it on the news. I believe it Cambell Park site which has protests from residents. They had audio clips of the confrontations and it did get quite heated. Residents were not allowing people to pass them and it sounded like a very agressive confrontation...

    City Workers Strike 2009

    I don't know about that one, but I'd be surprised if it was actually on the grass. My local one is also on pavement. Has the city noted when and how they plan on clearing those dumps? Did they do anything like that during the last strike or did they just wait until it was over? I'd like to...

    City Workers Strike 2009

    If the city manages to stop picketers from holding up people dropping off the garbage, I think we could go all summer easily. Well, thats assuming the city actually clears out those dumps every now and then. Honestly if we just got rid of garbage pickup all together and really were FORCED to...

    City Workers Strike 2009

    I'm furious about the residents of one of the new temporary dumps trying to stop people from dumping in "their" park. Give me a break....for the last two weeks, whose park did they dump THEIR garbage in? Talk about selfish. I would not be surprised if one of the union members just...

    Best place to look for retail space for lease?

    opposing objectives....no, I wouldn't say so at all. The objective is making money, so finding a "deal" on rent falls into that category as well doesn't it? And its all variable...for a better location, I'm looking at 800 or slightly less sqft which isn't that large and not really that out of...

    Whats going on at Yonge/Eglinton?

    Yes that is where I was talking about, particularly the east side of Yonge. It seemed strange so I was wondering if there was some particular reason such as maybe the road work i saw done was for some big project that would be there for a long time or something and there was something...

    Whats going on at Yonge/Eglinton?

    Ok, I apologize..I'm not exactly sure where to put this. The other forums seem very "structured" and I dont' know if I could just open a new thread there. North of Yonge and Eglinton there is a lot of road construction and I notice a lot of "for lease" signs on the east side. There was an...

    Best place to look for retail space for lease?

    Thanks for the suggestions and the offer. Unfortunately the danforth is too east for me. I'm looking for an area in the west or smack dab downtown...but I'll be open to other areas but not in the beaches/leslieville/east end areas. I'm looking at a space I like at richmond and spadina but...

    City Workers Strike 2009

    Anyone go to the Comissioner St or main/gerrard temp dumps? Are there big waits? They close at 7pm and I can get to either dump around 6:30. If there are holdups, I obviously cannot make it in time, but are either of those dumps moving smoothly where I can just dump and go?

    Restaurant Comings & Goings

    Never had craft, but GBC has a great burger. LOVE the toppings, however the quality of the burger is much better at Allens hands down. At allens, I just have a plain burger with lettuce and onion, cooked rar and it is great. But sometimes you just want a big greasy burger with all these great...

    Best place to look for retail space for lease?

    Besides craigslist, mls (icx.ca), and driving around desired neighborhoods, any other ways to look for a retail space that may have missed the radar?

    Shops at Don Mills (redevelopment, Giannone Petricone/Pellow + Associates )

    Well I do'nt know anything for sure, but I think this competes with malls based on the types of shops available. Lets go over the list... Yes there are some specialty stores like McEwan and Anthropogie but really...other malls each have their own specialty stores as well. The majority of...

    City Workers Strike 2009

    A company picks up garbage for a restaurant where I work part time for $3 a bag. I'm just going to bring my garbage to work and pay to avoid waiting in line. I don't have time from 7-7 and it sounds like Bermondsey will be packed at all hours! I hope this doesn't mean the price/bag is...

    Just went to bermondsey, lineup was at least 40 cars deep so I turned around and went home. I'm thinking of going at like 2am but everyone else might have the same idea
