this is moronic.

1. 'TO store just off the highway'. Hardly. You pass established neighbourhoods, retail districts and sit in big-city traffic if you choose to drive from the Gardiner to TO's MEC.
In Burlington, you exit the highway, zip through the stoplight and try to slow down in time so you don't fly past the store. It literally is next to the highway. It's like saying Gore Park and IKEA are equally 'next to the 403/QEW'.

2. 'Bikes can access the store via Brant St' - have fun with that one.
3. Public Transit - yea, a real viable option for traveling around Burlington. Next thing they're going to tell us is that it's just as convenient as the streetcars in Toronto. On the bright side, you can be sure that there will always be room for your bike on a rack in Burlington.
4. Parking - Pay attention to these 2 words (without them, business in Burlington has little chance of survival): free parking.
