The city of Toronto should really have a bylaw limiting stores like H&M. We really don't need three H&M's downtown, ruining our unique streets. One store at the Eaton Centre was more then enough for the downtown.
Now you gotta trek all the way out to Ossington to even find a sort of vibe of the old Queen West.

If there is demand, then ya you really do need 3 H&M's in Downtown.
Small scale retailers have their niche, that is what makes them unique. H&M sells cheap, fashionable, disposable clothing, they are two different markets.
It like buying an ikea versus. a solid walnut with cherry in-lay.
