Canberra is pretty awful. Over-planned, overly sterile with absolutely no urban feel to it at all. Unless I somehow missed it, the closest thing to a downtown was a shopping mall.

Actually, it's a Buick, identifiable by the row of rosettes resembling those of a leopard.

Looking north on Spadina, east side, south of Dundas, 1906: Is that house with the bay window north of the second set of pillars the same as the one below?

I recall being told that as a funeral parlour, they specialized in children's funerals.

I find the constantly shifting background very annoying, unnecessary and a distraction from the business at hand of informing. Is this a ploy to attract the Much Music crowd? Poor Peter looks like he's a weary wiener vendor attending to his glass cart on King Street West. I hope they don't force...

Although I don't bank with TD, I did work for them about a hundred years ago. I was very impressed that one of the first things they taught me at head office was that a good teller never pays for their own lunch but should stiff the customer for services charges and then pocket the proceeds...

2006 for C$62.5 million + renovations at a cost of C$17 million = C$52.0 M?

One can't but wonder if those in favour of this project are going to use the same arguments in favour of the proposal for Church & Gloucester.

Are those shallow people making those shallow judgements worth fretting over? I'm uncertain why you would think that someone who doesn't submit to those artificial standards is a sociopath. What is so wrong with being yourself - that is who you are and unless you are a major crim, why should you...

Judged by who and why would one care what others mistakenly think?

I think Holts and the stores east of it were erected on the existing foundations for the Woolies and Zellers which originally occupied the site. I recall that there was an issue with the ground floor of one which was a few inches higher than the other. At the time, it seemed odd that it was not...

Quite possibly. I don't recall it being anything else but I could be wrong. Toby's was a local chain. There was one at Yonge & Bloor before the block got torn down for the ill-fated 1 Bloor East. They served a really decent hamburger.

Definitely Toby's. I was a bit distressed when it closed.

Hero!
