The Tips, the Timeline, and the Top 15 Best Donair Shops in Edmonton By Emil Tiedemann Where is the best donair in the Edmonton region?! It's been the subject of serious (but not really) debate for many years now and there are literally hundreds of options for us spoiled Edmontonians to choose from.

e A LTHOUGH the name may lead you to believe otherwise, the Canadian staple of Boston Pizza was conceived right here in the city of Edmonton. Greek immigrant Gus Agioritis opened the doors to Boston Pizza & Spaghetti House back in 1964, with almost no experience in the restaurant business, but by 1970 there were 17 BP locations (15 franchised) in Western Canada.

There are currently 22 BP locations in Edmonton alone. e

I'm warm enough to survive the night, but not full enough to lose my thoughts to achieve a few hours of sleep. This is our first night together and as strangers to these streets we all face a certain uncertainty." Sounds like the rouse of a fictive novel, or perhaps the memoirs of a jilted past. Nope, it's actually the first entry of a young man's blog , recalling his accounts of spending five days in the life of a homeless person . And that young man is one Colin Close , an Edmonton, by-way-of Whitehorse, singer and songwriter, musician and humanitarian in the making. But Close, 23, is modest about his spare time contributions. "I haven't done much in terms of established volunteering. I did some through school, coll
