Two weeks have passed since the earthquake and tsunami hit Japan. Relief efforts have been underway but the devastation is so extensive and still evolving. Our friends and relatives in Japan who we've been in contact with on a regular basis are expressing how much need there is. Please keep their hope alive by donating what you can. See credible organizations here.
Granted is donating partial proceeds of on-line sales to The Red Cross.
The Drake General Store is a unique hotel gift shop in the heart of Toronto. The Drake has three awesome locations to choose from and stocks items beyond postcards and toothpaste. However they do have postcards AND toothpaste but the postcards are retro images of Canada and our toothpaste is Marvis, a beautifully packaged paste from Italy in such interesting flavours such as Jasmine and Ginger.
The Drake also seamlessly mix in vintage with new and feature just unlikely items such as a Jenna Jameson Colouring book next to a Godard Film Book.
The most interesting thing about The Drake General Store is that since its a hotel gift shop they get a great revolving selection of interesting guests from fun and crazy Frenchmen to Feist and even David Cross!

Billy Would Designs is the result of a love for wood, reusing materials and
great friends and family. Officially started in 2007 with a few simple jewellery
designs it's grown like a bad case of cooties, expanding to include belt
buckles, cuff links and constant new designs. Based in North Vancouver BC 'Billy
Would' salvages wood offcuts, scrap and broken skateboards to create one of a
kind pieces that are low impact on the environment. Salvaged wood suppliers like Larrivee Guitars and the Boardroom there's never a dull moment!
Awesome accessories for guys and gals! Just bought a piece for the Girlfriend and she loves the Canadian hand made appeal to these pieces.
