Forget the past, it's gone 30 April 2010. Forget the blame game, who cares and will it fix the issue.
So what can we do now and in the future. Get the city/prov/fed to sponsor a developmental loan to use infrastructure money to purchase the equipment or equipments for a brewery, hell they want the taxes off them.
labatts will NOT leave the brewing equipment, as it would enable competition.
So could BRICK out of Guelph move in, or the small brewer from out west (who's current plan is in Wisconsin) move in and maybe set up a elevated restaurant over the Harbour.
A craft brewer or brewers like the artists hotel planned for John Street across from the armouries. Hey an inhouse pub crawl with a fleet of taxis waiting outside. We could learn from BC as they support local brews on tap.
Look up

or

One of these is in a industrial area that is changing into condos and then other is a converted hotel.
Think outside the box or is that a case (24).
