“Major commercial developer Riocan wants to build a 3-story shopping mall including a 2-story suburban-size Walmart and massive parking lot at Bathurst and College right between Kensington and Little Italy.

We can stop the mall. The City’s Official plan doesn’t permit malls like this to be built close to residential neighbourhoods, which is why the Ontario Municipal Board has already once rejected the mall. But Riocan is pushing ahead anyway, applying to have the area re-zoned to let them build the mall. The re-zoning could be approved in a matter of months if we don’t fight back.”
