12 parking spots, though. That’s also an older street view.

 

Can you order in the VV satellite for a newer view?

$400k and less than 3 years old.  And you do not get the branding.  It has to be something substantial.

Maybe Lee’s Chicken on Admirals? Seems to have exactly 12 parking spots.

My wife and I used to go there sometimes and have the Love Boat. It has all sorts of sushi, sashimi, salad, soup, served in a Japanese style wooden boat. We enjoyed it. Also the interior was redone some years ago and still looks pretty decent.


Don't be so sure.:cool:

Looks as though there is finally some movement at the former Cascadia location in Quadra Village (next to the pharmacy). There is construction inside, and a notice outside that states there will be a small restaurant. I'm guessing fast food, but I'm curious if anyone knows anything.

News Alert: Hooters files for bankruptcy

Hooters — the restaurant chain first known for its orange-clad, all-female wait staff and then its chicken wings — filed for bankruptcy, the company announced Monday. But the decades-old brand said it isn’t going anywhere.

In the bankruptcy process, the company plans to sell all of its 100 company-owned restaurants to two franchisee groups that operate Hooters locations in the Tampa, Florida, and Chicago areas. The combined group collectively operates a third of the US franchised-owned locations, according to the press release.

Under the federal Temporary Foreign Worker Program, Dino Osmanovic came to Victoria in 2021, with hopes of having his family follow him, but in January, limits were placed on temporary residents bringing their spouses and children to the country.

 

Now, Osmanovic is appealing to the federal government to help him bring is family to Canada.

 

 

https://cheknews.ca/...hanges-1249079/

 

 

 

 

He’s been here since 2021 under Canada’s temporary foreign worker permit.

 

 

[,,,]

 

 

Osmanovic’s previous work history involved starting work as an 18-year old at NATO military bases around the world including Afganistan as a chef.

 

But he was always away from his family.

 

Now, he wants to bring his wife and four children, ages ranging from four to 13, to Canada from Bosnia and Herzegovina.

 

He’s only seen them twice since he arrived in this country, their last visit together lasting only four days.

 

Osmanovic said his 13-year old daughter finds it difficult because he’s been away for so many years.

 

 

 

 

 

This guy keeps getting lots of media.

Most people from Bosnia go to work in Germany, Austria or Switzerland. They pay higher there, have good medical and you can visit back home over a weekend.
