Sean, of Duncan's Cafe in Cllingwood, sent me this ad he plans to run in the local newspapers. He gave me permission to post it here.
I don't think I need to comment - the ad says it all.
Test your skill! Look at the three pictures below and tell me what's wrong in each one:

Efforts to amend and defer the licensing bylaw failed, last night. Councillors Jeffrey, McNabb, Labelle, Foley and Sandberg voted to make sure patios must move to the curbside. The letters, the e-mails, the petition, the presentations all opposing the move were for naught.
Three attempts were made to defer it during our six-hour marathon meeting...

I just learned that the traditional pancake breakfast will not be taking place downtown on Canada Day this year. Council wasn't informed of this change, nor was council even asked whether or not we wanted to participate. It was just cancelled.

Duncan's Cafe has launched a series of colour newspaper ads in response to the unpopular but determined efforts for five members of council to force restaurants to move their patios to the curbside. Here are three so...

The proposed "comprehensive licensing bylaw" was the main - and oft contentious - topic of debate at council, Monday night. We had been given a draft version to consider and discuss with our constituents, 10 days earlier. But the version we got in the agenda package, Friday, was very much altered from the previous draft (which in turn...
Brother, Can You Spare a Dime is one of the most memorable songs of the 1930s, written at the height of the Great Depression, by the son of Jewish immigrants, Yip Harburg, with music by composer - and another Jewish immigrant - Jay Gorney. It was written in 1931, and later included in a musical, New Americana, in 1932. I thought it might...
The patio at Duncan's restaurant can stay where it is - for now. The councillors who wanted to repeal the old patio bylaw decided at the last moment to defer the motion (moved by Councillor Jeffrey, seconded by Councillor Labelle). Had it passed, it would have made all downtown patios illegal until (or if) a new patio bylaw comes into...
I just returned from a few days in Toronto, attending the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) annual convention. Picked up a lot of good ideas (especially around open government and open data) and information, which I'll post at a later point. What I wanted to write about here is how the host city handles its downtown and its patios,...
