In cities and towns across Ontario — and at Queen’s Park and Parliament Hill — our journalists work for you. Their mission is to dig for answers and tell you what they find.
This new feature — ‘Closer Look’ — is a chance to hear directly from those dedicated reporters and editors.
Every night, Village Media’s Scott Sexsmith sits down with one of our journalists to explore an important story they are covering. These in-depth conversations go beyond the headlines, helping viewers better understand how we gather the details that land in your local news feed.
On tonight’s episode of ‘Closer Look’: the grocery store you can't actually shop at.
SEE: The DoorDash grocery store where the public isn’t allowed inside
Although it looks like a typical grocery store, this particular outlet in downtown Toronto is anything but. It is not open to the public. It's exclusively for DoorDash customers who use the company's food delivery app.
TorontoToday reporter Kathryn Mannie joins us on the show to explain what residents think about the local grocery store they can't actually enter. You can read her full story HERE.
