This grocery store chain is opening a new location on the Hamilton Mountain
The Hamilton Mountain is getting a new grocery store. Scott's No Frills will open at 970 Upper Wentworth St., on June 26 — right across the road from Lime Ridge Mall, Loblaw Companies Ltd. confirmed to The Spectator in an email. The store, which will span roughly 15,000 square feet, will carry fresh produce, meat, frozen goods, multicultural products and Canadian items, a statement from the grocery chain said. The franchisee of the location, Scott Herbert, began working for No Frills — a chain of discount supermarkets under the Loblaw banner — more than a decade ago. He originally started as a dairy clerk, read the statement. Herbert moved up in the company and held managerial roles such as produce manager and later was an associate manager. He began the journey of becoming a franchisee last year, according to Loblaw. Loblaw noted the opening of the store has created 60 new jobs for the community. To mark the opening, Herbert is donating $1,500 to the Neighbour to Neighbour Centre. To celebrate the grand opening, the store will host giveaways for the first 100 customers each day from June 26 to 29. And starting on July 8, customers will be able to utilize delivery options and PC Express pickup. The store will be open from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m., daily. The opening of the store marks a new grocery offering for the area, which already has a Fortinos on Mall Road as well as M&M Food Market and Eastern Food Market on Upper Wentworth. There are several other No Frills locations across Hamilton.

Toronto Pride says there won't be any ‘noticeable differences' to events despite $900,000 funding gap
The organization behind Toronto's Pride events says there won't be any noticeable changes to this month's programming despite a six-figure funding gap. Pride Toronto's executive director Kojo Modeste says the festival faces a $900,000 shortfall that is likely to impact programming next year. Modeste says the funding gap was caused by corporate sponsors pulling their support and the rising costs of running the festival. Three companies withdraw as sponsors of Toronto's Pride festival amid DEI backlash Modeste says some sponsors are not returning as American companies move away from diversity, equity and inclusion efforts that have been under attack by U.S. President Donald Trump's administration. Other Canadian sponsors, including Shopper's Drug Mart and No Frills, have stepped up in the face of Pride Toronto's financial woes. Toronto's Pride parade will take place on June 29.
