The new incarnation hasn't gone bankrupt. Not yet. But they are closing so many stores it feels inevetible.
The main owner also owns HMV and Sunrise records. Which explains why they started selling LPs and band t-shirts.
You can't even make online purchases on the Toys R Us website currently either. They say the site is under maintenance.
Wouldn't surprise me if we get an announcement soon that they are fulling shutting down operations
They were essentially hoping to just quietly shut it down and never replace it at all.
But the outrage was so high that now they are forced to re-open it. Even as they drag their feet on that.
The other shoe to drop will be when they give the land to one of the members of the Vaughan Developer...
The estimated repair costs were about $200 million.
The estimated new build is $1.44 billion according to the auditor general.
Honestly it's not necessary for you to do this lame propaganda for Doug Ford. Not sure why some people are quick to defend the most corrupt Premier in Ontario history.
They are only selling the lower bowl so far and nothing in the north so it's not clear if they will be ready.
My own speculation based on the construction photos we've seen is that the south expansion will be ready but the north won't.
Seeing some of the photos of some of those Toronto neighbourhoods with on street parking, I don't even know how they will even be able to clean those streets.
Some of these idiots should have been periodically cleaning their cars I think.
