The interest in Menard's store and Winnipeg is intense. The day they decide to open a store in Winnipeg will likely cause hysteria. Cats will fall out of trees and dogs will turn rabid in the mouth.

Think many people were a little stunned when The Great Canadian Talk Show was cancelled. Public affairs radio is a little bit lesser today for it.

Interesting to see what gets the most attention. Judging by your rankings, it's clear that Menards is the new IKEA!
ReplyDeleteIt is clear that the store has its fans in Manitoba.
