A good friend of mine is a high up in the commercial real estate industry (big malls and large plazas). He said that since Covid, retailers are ALL suffering... all across the continent..
Vacancies and outright abandonment of retail space is and will occur, even in the big cities... E-commerce and a slowing economy is to blame..
don't let the low unemployment fool you... the economy is on a life line and things are going to get a ugly in the coming years. Doesn't help that Cdns have the highest personal debt load among industrialized countries. DOn't blame govt for that. People want everything now and without thought.. .they just use their credit car. My old man never bought anything unless he could buy it with the cash he had in his bank account.. We are addicted to credit.
That’s too bad, been a while since I stopped there.Quote:

We have a gun smith in Embrun but he's old probably 70's. When he goes nobody will take his place.
I wonder about Gunco in Ottawa, is someone going to take over when he's done?
This is a dying trade an nobody is filling in the shoes.
I noticed today that Eli's Guns and Archery is closing up shop as well. Clearout sale for the next month
