^shitty news. When I first moved to London (2005), we had an apt across from Westmount mall. It was extremely convenient, since we were still carless. The mall was quite healthy back then...most of the dumbcentre to the South was not yet constructed (only Blob-laws, LCBO, Crappytire, and a handful of others). More of the usal robbing Peter to pay Paul.
It would really suck if Sherwood mall's location was shuttered. It is a mostly thriving micro-mall, with a great mixture of useful stores (banks, Beer/LCBO, grocery, pharmacy, pet food, kids shoes, restaurants, etc.). Like most malls used to be, before morphing into Ladies-wear/shoes emporiums and big box barf.
I go to Sherwood 3-4 times per week for something or other. Metro is running the locations into the ground with ever-reduced store hours. Not surprised as this was their m/o back in Quebec as well. I can't stand stupidstore and No-Thrills (both Blob-laws brands...in fact, I hate Blob-laws as well with their ridiculously high prices: $10.99 for 500grams of Cracker Barrel? are you fucking nutz??).
