I do not think this is cool at all. Queen Street is not suppose to be about these mega Canadian chains, opening stores on.
Why should we be happy a store is opening on Queen that sells the same products in every superstore in the suburbs and country?
Yet another reason for people not to trek down to Queen Street for a day of shopping.
At this rate, there will be nothing to draw people to Queen in a few years, if all the companies keep opening suburban stores on Queen.
It will be interesting to see if Queen actually declines and sees its status as a shopping destination go down the tubes, if it keeps turning into nothing but a suburban mall/loblaws.
