This is so on point. The Village is a simulation of a student ghetto in small town Ontario. But maybe that's what patrons want; to be reminded of the dreary hamlet from which they came. It's mind-boggling.

Hey Freshcut! I don't live in P-dale. But I've been traveling there since 1979. I think your observations are correct. " That's why the city loves Parkdale....they think it keeps the riffraff out of their neighborhood. " YES!

I hope they toss them away next week. What junk.

LA has 15 councillors. We have 44. What the hell is going on here? LA has 10 million people.

Those awful markers are back and look even worse when lit. How do we have them removed. The area is already visually compromised.

This is the worst from 1980. It would look modern and relevant in Markham. Maybe they installed it in the wrong place?

Hope C+B or Restoration Hardware would attract more high end stores. With Cabbagetown to the East and Rosedale to the north, there would certainly be enough potential shoppers. I love Cumbraes, Pusitari's and Smith but it would be nice to see those awful dated sex shops like Stag and Priape...

Someone should take a wrecking ball to Church and Wellesley. It's a D U M P.

I couldn't agree more!

I'm into the nabe about a month ago. Has anyone noticed the awful smell of burning vegetable oil which emanates from the restaurant Gingers day and night?

This just in. Central YMCA to create Gay Men Change Rooms. Apparently ordinary men are tired of being cruised and molested by the Gays!

Toronto shootings. 30 people shot in the last 5 days. 3 More shot last night.

Here here. Couldn't have said it better myself.

Oh Oh. Now this. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/life/the-hot-button/study-reveals-canadas-most-miserable-city/article1817028/
