"I've noticed Krispy Kreme, best known for its glazed doughnuts, is making a comeback in Montreal: Quebec government listings show a new location at 5737 Côte-des-Neiges (near Côte‑Ste‑Catherine) in the former Blanche Neige diner, and the chain is already hiring there. After an early-2000s expansion that mostly reversed and left only a few Canadian outposts (notably a Greenfield Park location), Montreal proper had been without a store for about a decade until April, when a Ste‑Catherine shop opened right by Place-des-Arts. The Ste‑Catherine location's popularity, combined with this quick push to open another site, suggests the chain may be faring better this time in its attempts to re-establish itself in Canada." - Tim Forster
