Dollarama set to make St. Pat’s Day bigger than Halloween

St. Patrick’s Day Toronto-style is coming down Dermot’s turnpike. That’s the day we’re all Irish whether we like it or not. No offense. Dollarama has stocked up for this occasion with tons of celebratory items. We like the flashing green glasses. It seems bigger than Halloween, which falls second only to Christmas for commercial excitement. Again this year, liquor firm Jameson has agreed to pay the fare on the Queen and King streetcars. Mind, many in South Bayview would be happy to ride the 88 Leaside free even stone-cold sober. But no such thrill is on offer.
