Have the private equity firms tapped out dentistry? They're now focusing on veterinary?

That silly drain is ridiculous.

There are always going to be rodents around grocery stores because of the garbage with good food pickings. This is a well-run store, so obviously they failed in their controls, but I wouldn't doubt that they will have it all under control and cleaner than ever in short order.

Facebook is telling me the St. Lawrence Metro was shut down today due to a rodent infestation.

As I said, I haven't been out much in the last five years, so it's quite possible. It used to be almost the only Hakka place in town, but there are quite a few alternatives now.

Ontario has allowed this for a while for wine, but the restaurant needs to be able to "recork" the wine, and I'm not sure how strenuous the test for "recorking" is if it's not a twist-off.

Since having a kid, my trips to the suburbs to eat have been severely curtailed, but just off the top of my head a few old favourites: Fishman Lobster Clubhouse Federick's Hopper Hut Mom's Pan-Fried Buns Kairali Charcoal Kebab House (they're open downtown now too, though)

They would probably have to replace the entire board of directors first.

Scarborough has not much going for it, but it probably has better food than 99% of suburbs in the world.

One of the absolute legends of craft beer went to Texas (from Belgium, where he had revived brewing in Hoegaarden) to open his brewery. Austin is a mecca for any beer enthusiast. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_Celis

And I think Alvin was explaining that the rationale makes no sense.

"solving" = moving to Dufferin Grove (just an example, obviously elsewhere as well).

The Criminal Code has ways of dealing with that issue, but your intent matters *a lot* when it comes to criminal law.

We can get really good beer from breweries, the LCBO and grocery stores. But no beer connoisseur would compare our craft beer availability to the American market.

Unfortunately everybody abdicated responsibility on the housing file, so that can’t be the criterion.

I made the big time!

Bloor is about 50 metres higher. And the CN tower observation deck is 345 m, so they are almost exactly the same height above sea level.

One of Toronto’s original great coffee shops.

Chrétien is obviously the best PM of the last few decades.

My wife has bad memories of the Bloor night bus from her younger days.
