Construction Litigators:

French Press?

I hope your pup is OK and that this series goes well WELL in excess of 548 posts.

This is 100% true. Walking to the grocery store was the dream 8 years ago when we bought. It's silly to suggest that Westerra residents wouldn't walk there - they already walk to Coop Gas Bar, Saulteaux Crossing Tim Hortons and down Dewdney, next to 70km/hour traffic.

Side note: if money was not an object and I had the opportunity to buy a lot and build a house, the lots looking at the Dojack/AE Wilson wascana creek flood plain in Dieppe would be at or near the top of my list.

I run through Dieppe and find it transitional, but quite lovely, especially close to the park. Lovely sunsets by wascana creek/dojack. The No Frills on 4th Ave is lacking, Mike's Independent is better but further away. West Regina is long overdue for commerical development.

I am fine asking that question but I'm not willing to write off a business, that has been swamped with both in and and out of town demand, spurring residential and commercial development in the East end of Regina, being written off at the outset. That doesn't make any sense.

Other grocery retailers could have made the ask years ago but sat on their hands. The potential for Costco to drive development of the west like the north Superstore on Rochdale did decades ago is attractive - not sure how they arrived at $6.7 mil - but I'm not opposed to it conceptually.

I don't know if it's worth the $6.7 mil price tag but after several years living in west Regina, the apparent alternative to the westside Costco is that west Regina remains a barren, grocery store-less, dust bowl. Forster Harvard has managed to get 1 gas station and 1 daycare in about a decade.

Hell of a campaign Mac!

That Superstore used to be THE downtown grocery store and the fact that it is now occupied and used, unlike the railyard next door that has sat vacant for a decade, should be celebrated.

The video doesn't lie. As far as cheating goes, that wasn't subtle at all.
