		<description><![CDATA[When it first launched, Urbania magazine had a pretty useless Flash-based website that replicated selected content from its print magazine. I&#8217;m glad to see it has embraced the full potential of the web. 14 &#8220;channels&#8221; of video, images and text add a new, more dynamic aspect to the quarterly magazine. One of my favourite features [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve long been fascinated by dépanneurs, the ubiquitous Montreal convenience store that are usually owner-operated and ramshackle in appearance. They&#8217;re an integral part of life in Montreal&#8212;most people visit them at least once or twice a day for beer, milk, lotto tickets, cigarettes or a snack&#8212;and they occupy a vital place in the social and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The old axiom &#8220;build it and they will come&#8221; certainly applies to dépanneurs. You don&#8217;t need an attractive façade, windows or even a sign &#8212; as long as people know that it&#8217;s a dep, and that they can purchase there the holy trinity of Montreal needs (beer, lotto and cigarettes), they will come. The city [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If Montreal seems saturated with dépanneurs, that&#8217;s because it is: 1,127 crowd the island, about one for every 1,500 people. Since they emerged in their current form in the 1970s, the descendants of tobacconists and once-ubiquitous corner grocery stores, dépanneurs have become an inextricable part of life in Montreal. They also are an important but [...]]]></description>

He&#8217;s not kidding. Ubhi&#8217;s hours&#8212;14 hours a day, seven days a week&#8212;would make most office workers weep. Every morning, he [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Although most depanneurs are owned by immigrants or people from what Quebec politicians like to call &#8220;cultural communities,&#8221; they typically bear few traces of their proprietor&#8217;s ethnic origin. Sometimes there might be a heater on the counter containing churros or samosas but, for the most part, deps focus on the holy trinity of beer, tobacco [...]]]></description>

But then, a couple of years ago, a friendly, middle-aged couple from the northern Chinese province of Shandong bought the depanneur and mounted a large vinyl banner that clearly announced [...]]]></description>

He’s an odd guy, with a closely shaved crop of black hair and a self-important, Duddy Kravitzesque charm that comes across whether he’s addressing you in English or French. There’s a bit of irony in his greeting, and in the [...]]]></description>
