    Farm Boy expansion in the GTA

    Maybe. But the Farm Boy model is that it doesn’t replicate a full-line grocery store. Farm Boy intentionally places its stores near other supermarkets, and assumes that its customers will also shop for grocery staples at a supermarket once they’ve picked up their fresh food at Farm Boy. So...

    Toronto Breweries, Brew Pubs, Bottle Shops

    https://www.blogto.com/eat_drink/2018/09/black-lab-brewing-leslieville-toronto/ “Toronto's newest brewery is just weeks from opening, and when it does, guests can expect a dog-friendly space that's open to cyclists and runners too.”

    2018 Municipal Election: Toronto Council Races

    It’s those things, as well as a constitutional democracy. My point was simply to rebut the earlier claim of Parliamentary supremacy.

    2018 Municipal Election: Toronto Council Races

    And apparently Fragedakis gave an interview confirming that she will be running against Fletcher.

    2018 Municipal Election: Toronto Council Races

    We have a constitutional democracy where the constitution is supreme.

    2018 Municipal Election: Toronto Council Races

    I would have thought the NDP, Toronto Labour Council, etc would pick one candidate, presumably Fletcher, no?

    2018 Municipal Election: Toronto Council Races

    Has Fragedakis also announced she’s running against Fletcher? We got a call from her campaign last night, according to screen display, but couldn’t be bothered to pick up. In retrospect, I ought to have.

    East York-Old East York

    Custom-made jackets make Pape look good Danielle Clarke, The Toronto Observer, 18 September 2018 "...When Noronha and Nguyen opened fashion boutique 988 Concept in Pape Village in June of last year, they didn’t expect to be collaborating on exclusive repurposed custom-made jackets that would be...

    Toronto non-mall retail (Odds & Ends)

    (1) I agree with this in respect of espresso-based drinks. But Starbucks does brewed coffee fine. I actually prefer Starbucks brew to some independents. But Starbucks latte - yuck. (2) Yes, yes, yes. And, oddly, their baked goods (and sandwiches) used to be better. (3) Never going to...

    Toronto non-mall retail (Odds & Ends)

    What about Mast Coffee at Shuter and Dalhousie. Have you tried it? I haven't been in yet, but have wondered when passing it by. Presumably the closure of the Starbucks will be a boon to nearby Mast.

    Music streaming

    That makes no sense. How frustrating.

    Toronto Municipal Election 2018: Mayor’s Race

    Oh please. When in history has anyone been stopped and ticketed for going 31 in a 30 zone? How is driving 30 on a *residential* Street a “downtown” thing?

    Music streaming

    I'm not sure what Jason was referring to, but Apple Music allows one to integrate one's own digital collection (paid downloads,CD rips, etc.) with the streaming service. For example, you could create a playlist containing both your own stuff and songs on the streaming service. The ability to...

    East York-Old East York

    They've had permits for underpinning work since 2015.

    East York-Old East York

    Apologies if this has been asked and answered before, but what the heck is going on at the NW corner of Cosburn and Pape?

    Revere is a big loss.

    I suspect that she will come out against it.

    Ottawa Transit Developments

    2018 Municipal Election: Toronto Council Races

    What tearful retirement? She (unlike others) felt it inappropriate to continue to serve as Councillor while campaigning full time to be elected MPP. So she resigned. She did not retire from politics, nor do I recall her saying that her days in municipal politics were done for all time. She...
