Bakka, Canada’s oldest science fiction bookstore, is moving. They were a fixture of Queen St West before they moved to their current Yonge and Wellesley location. Well, they’re moving back. New location:
697 Queen Street West
Just west of Bathurst Av.
They move March 1st. I don’t know why, but I think this is just great news!

I read in the paper recently that Bakka’s upstairs neighbour, Glad Day, is closing down soon, after years of fighting the man. That may have something to do with Bakka’s move.
I’ll admit to a little relief at the move, though. I always felt a bit conspicuous entering Bakka via the doorway they shared with Glad Day (not that there’s anything wrong with that. 🙂 ).
