Tim Best starting another business
From AM980:

Meantime, Best is starting another business venture which isn't making poverty activists very happy.
The London Free Press is reporting he's opened a payday loan and cheque-cashing business in the same building as the city's welfare office.
Critics call the business predatory, but Best says he opened it in Market Tower at Dundas and Richmond because it's owned by Shmuel Farhi, the same landlord as his downtown bar.
When asked about the location of the business only steps away from the Ontario Works Office, Best told the Free Press, "It's not the worst location."

The payday loan market is already saturated in London. And we don't need another reason for welfare bums to hang around Dundas and Richmond.
