The Corner Store, or as we call them in general Depaneurs a short vid appearing in the Gazette and now youtube.
The little corner stores we all grew up with buying candy as a kid cigs a little later and maybe played the pinball machine.It was and still is a part of life in Verdun/Montreal....although disappearing due to big box joints, I think we all need the corner store (or the middle of the block for those rare ones)
