I recently meandered through downtown Orangeville, Ontario while on a visit from Vancouver and…read morestumbled upon this delightful bookstore. It was well stocked and organized. The array of fiction was impressive and there was a good mix of contemporary fiction and classic literature. The woman behind the counter was delightful and we engaged in a thoughtful conversation that I greatly appreciated. I could tell that this store was a place that took pride in what it does and as a result is an integral part of the vibrant historic downtown Orangeville that has been able to have thrive, which is remarkable in an age where many old Downtowns have suffered at the hand of shopping malls and big box stores. I will go out of my way to come here again next time I am in Southern Ontario, and will stop to buy a few books to read in one of the delightful coffee shops nearby.

I was horrified to hear the staff berating a woman who had her mask down in the store. The ignorant staffer asked if she had a virology degree and insisted that a cloth mask was mandatory even though the woman had put it back up. Even Fauci at this point has said cloth masks don't stop the spread of this virus. It's disturbing that staff can be belligerent to customers as mandates are about to be dropped literally tomorrow. Never will I shop here again.
