You'll usually find a couple of local art-house cinemas as well, or cinemas showing mainly Canadian releases. Certainly there's lots to choose from, ranging from Andrew Lloyd-Webber to Shakespeare to new Canadian talent such as the excellent Brad Fraser, winner of the 1994 London Evening Standard award for the most promising new playwright. Most of it takes place in malls, of which there are thousands spread across the country. The advantage of these is that they protect shoppers from Canada's fierce winter weather. Most shops are open 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., or later in the bigger cities.
Furs are also widely available, especially in Ontario.
