yup yonge and steeles one of the few malls that had a canadian tire. I'm pretty sure that shoppers world in brampton is also going to be torn down to make way for condos.
Small malls like this are on their last legs, many stores can't afford the rent and the land owner can get more by selling to a developer for condos.
@trick i'm sure bridlewood and woodside are on their last legs as well
Damn, Tearing down Shoppers World for condos would make a lot of sense. Might be able two squeeze to building there.yup yonge and steeles one of the few malls that had a canadian tire. I'm pretty sure that shoppers world in brampton is also going to be torn down to make way for condos.

Woodside is definitely not gonna make it. My mom already got a letter about the parking lot near Food Basics. They want to build condos there. Pretty sure that entire mall will be eventually be turned into condos in 10-15 years like Market Village and Centerpoint will be.

Yup, cedarbrae, woodbine mall and albion mall should also be on the list. You go inside these malls and beside the grocery store and dollarama its a bunch of and
Cedarbrae was already dying and depressing as fukk when I worked there in 2005. I can't imagine how it is now
These dying malls are either going to be condos, house or Amazon warehouses
I wish them the best, but no way in hell is anything in Brampton going to look that fancy. I put my life on it.its already happening
Shoppers World Condos - Brampton
Many of these malls are on prime real estate.
Yeah. Malls usually need flagship stores like a Sears or Zellers to keep them afloat and they are all gone.Yup, cedarbrae, woodbine mall and albion mall should also be on the list. You go inside these malls and beside the grocery store and dollarama its a bunch of and
what type of restrictions we talking
What if they were all vaccinated with a booster
Its been 2 years tbh I cant blame people anymore
Imagine getting cancer diagnosis..and they cant do surgery or you gotta wait due to covid
Quebec will expand its vaccination passport system so that users will eventually be required to have three doses of a COVID-19 vaccine in order to use it, Health Minister Christian Dubé announced during a news conference Thursday.
Dubé did not provide an exact date for the change, only saying it would be made once all Quebecers have been given the chance to get a third dose.
Currently, the general population has access to a third dose if they are 50 or older. All adults will have access as of Jan. 17.
Dubé also announced that Quebecers will need to show proof that they are adequately vaccinated in order to enter the Quebec Liquor Corp. (SAQ) and government-run stores selling recreational cannabis (SQDC) as of Jan. 18.
Dubé said the measure comes as the province ramps up its efforts to slow down the rapid increase in COVID-19 hospitalizations.
Dubé said the measures were necessary to protect unvaccinated people, who represent at least half of those in hospital with the virus.
"If the unvaccinated aren't happy with this situation, there is a very simple solution at your disposal," the minister said. "It is to get vaccinated. It's free."
The minister also said the government will expand the use of the vaccination passport to other non-essential businesses, such as personal care services, with that announcement expected in the coming days.
"By limiting the places they can go, we're limiting their contacts," Dubé said, referring to people who aren't vaccinated.
"If you don't want to get vaccinated, stay home."
The health minister also highlighted the fact that about half the people with COVID-19 being admitted into ICUs are unvaccinated.
Nearly 20,000 health-care workers absent, minister says
On Thursday, the province reported that 1,953 people were in hospital with COVID-19, but that number could continue to rise rapidly, according to the province's health-care research institute.
The latest projections from the institute, which is known by its French acronym, INESSS, indicate that more than 3,400 Quebecers could be in hospital with COVID-19 in two weeks.
At least 3,000 of those patients would occupy regular beds, with a minimum of 400 being admitted to intensive care.
The institute did specify, however, that its projections did not take into account the province's most recent public health measures, including the overnight curfew, the closing of restaurant dining rooms and delaying the return to school for elementary and high school students.
As hospitalizations continue to grow, so is the number of health-care workers who are absent as a result of having contracted the virus.
The minister said that total has recently ballooned to almost 20,000.
Government has 'lost control,' opposition leader says
According to the leader of the province's Liberal Party, Dominique Anglade, the Coalition Avenir Québec is making decisions related to the pandemic based on political considerations instead of science.
"They've lost control," Anglade said.
The government did not do enough to anticipate and slow down the virus's fifth wave, she said.
She highlighted that Quebec's premier, François Legault, was not present during Thursday's news conference and has not had a public appearance this week. She called his absence "unacceptable."
She highlighted the fact that this week alone, the province has modified vaccination requirements, reduced the availability of PCR tests, changed the isolation rules for the general population as well as staff and children at daycares.
"All of this is creating a lot of anxiety in the population, and François Legault is nowhere to be seen this week," Anglade said.
Going online to declare positive COVID test
With the use of PCR tests now limited to more high-risk populations, and with more people using home testing kits, the province's daily case count is an underrepresentation of the spread of the virus, the minister said.
The province is planning, however, to allow Quebecers who use rapid testing kits at home to go online and declare their positive tests in order to help create a more accurate portrait of the epidemiological situation.
The online system should be in place next week, the minister said.
