Pacific Mall opening on Christmas Day? No Kidding!!!
I was reading an article on various sources throughout on my Google search and I realized that one shopping mall, nestled on the Scarborough-Markham border on Steeles Avenue and Kennedy Road has decided to open it’s mall on Christmas Day. That mall is called Pacific Mall, where it is home to many Chinese shops selling electronics, fashion clothing and many other things. They also have a food court down there.
From my perspective, I cannot understand why and how did the mall’s management want to open the mall on Christmas Day unlike many places which close on Christmas which translate into a virtual “Ghost town”. I’m not sure if the mall will break the law as set by the Retail Business Holidays Act set by the Government of Ontario. However, the City of Toronto has decided to pass its own bylaw last year (this is part of the new City of Toronto Act).
From what I had remembered, the mall was jam-packed last year, just like the scenes you saw on Boxing Day (in Canada) and Black Friday (in the U.S.). As for the mall, It’s anyone’s guess that the fact they will break the law if they open on Christmas Day now and then.
If only MSNBC personality Joe Scarborough visited the City of Toronto to check out the great and vibrant people and the tourist attractions down in the city. If Mr. Scarborough finds out, he will get “Tongue Tied”. As for Mr. Colin Minihan, the director who directed music videos for such artists as Social Code and Faber Drive, he will get kinda “knocked up” and “Tongue Tied” as well by the time he visited this ever-popular Asian-themed shopping mall. As Robin Williams once said (during his trip to the Canadian and American soldiers recently serving in Afghanistan), “You’re a kind people. You’re like the apartment of a very loud party. It’s wonderful, keep it down eh.” His own view on Pacific Mall opening on Christmas Day in “The Shortest Line” is anyone’s guess.
To the people who I had mentioned on this blog: I’m sorry that I profanely misused and mentioned your names on my blog posting. Please don’t sue me!!!!
