Good Afternoon BIA Members, I've spoken with a number of you in the past couple of days about the Federal government's proposed HST/GST tax break for consumers slated to run from December 14, 2024 to February 15, 2025. At the moment this motion is still being discussed in Parliament so it has NOT yet been passed. My sources think that the NDP will side with the Liberals in order to get this passed. In the meantime you all need to…

Our Crime Prevention Officer, PC Jonathan Little,…

Good Afternoon BIA Members, We just received notice today that Woodgreen will be starting their construction this Monday, Nov. 18/24. As you know, this is the demolition of the church located on the south/west corner of Danforth and Bowden and the construction of a new seniors' residence. This project has been delayed several times and getting the notice that work is starting this Monday is very tight. I do not have Woodgreen's traffic and parking plans for the affected area…
