We weren't able to take all of you, our BIA members, to the dinner but you were so very well represented by two of our BIA business members: Keiley Abbat, owner…

Good Afternoon All, As discussed at this year's AGM, the BIA Board has begun the process of rebranding the current Danforth BIA by creating new samples for both the name and logo for the BIA. We have found over the past several years that as more BIAs come into operation along the Danforth our Danforth BIA name has become too generic. It doesn’t indicate where on the Danforth we are located. The Danforth BIA could be anywhere between Broadview and…
