Confirmed: New Apple Store in Canada
Heads up,
Canadians. It looks like Eaton Center in Toronto has a new Apple Store in its future. The retail page on Apple's
Canadian site is currently listing job postings for Easton Center. If you're in the area, keep your eyes peeled for any
developments, and let us know what you find.Thanks, Scott!

Eaton's? That shit whole company? Eaton's failed for one reason and one reason alone.
Grossly incompetent management at at store and ex. level
Maybe Apple could think of Quebec before opening a second store in Toronto? We don't even have a single official Apple Service Center in the province since B.Mac went bankrupt... In fact, I don't think we even have a single Mac dedicated store in town!!! (3.5 millions people in the greater area).
HELLO APPLE????
I wanna buy mac stuff and get it fixed and it's not at FutureShop I'm gonna get any kinda of "Mac like" service.
As a former Apple Reseller in Toronto, I expect Apple will do quite well in this location. Hopefully well enough to put a few of the the local Mac businesses out of business. Greedy dishonest pricks.

There aren't any signs of an apple store inside the eaton centre BUT there is a large new mall going up right across the street from it in young and dundas square. Judging by the picture on the construction site it'll contain an AMC 24 movie theatre, virgin records store....my gut says it'll go in there. :) i'd be pumped that means we'd have an on campus apple store :):):):)

However, the news was always attached to a rumour that the new store wouldn't be the second, but rather, would be the result of the current store relocating. It always seemed a dumb idea to me, but that's the rumour as we resellers have been told for a good few months now.

Also, the Yorkdale store is ALWAYS so packed it's scary. I went there on a Sunday and had to wait 2 and a half hours for a Mac Genius appointment.

No firm confirmation whether it will be in the Eaton Centre or in a new development currently under construction right beside the Eaton Centre.
