[PHOTO] Some photos from Leslieville's Gadabout

Gadabout (1300 Queen Street East) is a shop with a marvelous collection of items from the early to mid 20th century, everything from vintage clothing to English-French dictionaries for chemists to autographed old postcards and at least one Cub Scout cap. It's famous: see these articles at Teen Vogue, Toronto.com, blogTO, the New York Times, the Toronto Star and the National Post if you don't believe me.

As for sequencing, the photos are arranged in order of increasing distance from the street. Think of this series of seven as approximating what you'd see as you ventured inside.

[FORUM] If you could move anywhere in the world, where would you go?

This [FORUM] post could as easily be tagged [DM], since it is directly inspired by this post at Demography Matters. A recent metapoll by Gallup suggested that more than seven hundred million would be prepared to migrate to another country if they had the opportunity, some regions and countries receiving more migrants under this model than others. Canada's population would increase by some 170%, for instance, while the Democratic Republic of Congo's would fall 60%. The model's assumptions might be questionable, but it arguably points in the general direction of future trends.

So, my readers. If you could move anywhere in the world, where would you go? Myself, I'm happy with Canada, but I can imagine other Canadians changing their minds.
