This building is not wheelchair friendly. The two wheelchair accessible doors to the lobby do not open all the way so it is impossible to get through if you were by yourself and there is no one to hold the door open for you.

Read moreI was at the French Canadian Pavillion. It was the 6:45 show. August 11th. The show itself was great, if I could see it? They had oversold the event. Everyone was crammed in. They had to create a couple of rows of seats by the bar. Food? Didn't bother, too much of a line up. Yes, we could have arrived a bit earlier, but we had arrived early enough. I was surprised that they would do this? Did they forget about COVID? Not exactly socially distancing. Disappointed, looks they were just money hungry. I haven't been for many years. Can't say when I would...
