Ottawa chatrooms:

Please note the following:

* All chatrooms are linked together. If you join one room your messages will be copied to the other platforms.

* Matrix is an open source and potentially distributed chat protocol. The matrix room listed is hosted on matrix.org, a somewhat centralized hub for a lot of currently public rooms. Though the protocol itself is free, libre and open source, the deployment of the protocol resembles a centralized service. This may be fixed in the future with the deployment of independent servers.

* Be aware that both Telegram and Discord are centralized proprietary platforms and do not necessarily protect your rights nor privacy while simultaneously giving power to corporations.

Very sad about this. I go there just about every other day to pick something up!

Do you have a link? I can't find anything about it online.

No link, they don't exactly keep their website up to date. I went in and asked the clerk why they're closing though, they cited increased competition and decreased profitably.

Probably not immediately obvious, the sign by the door in the image announces the closure.

I didn't even notice the chalkboard. Thanks!

Damn grocery companies price gouging and "inflation" is probably the cause.

It's really too bad. But, it is a good time to remind all that the Wellington Herb and Spice is actually a different business to the Bank one, which is staying open.
