All jokes aside, I definitely agree with supporting local businesses first. But I also agree with supporting national and international brands that give our city a chance. But, yes, local first.
St. John's does local business on a bigger scale and, in my opinion, better scale than most cities our size. We've got a lengthy list of the top-rated X, Y, and Z in Canada, from restaurants to lingerie shops.
