IN COUNTRIES such as France, some of the
businesses and industries close down fur the |
month of August, giving the-workers and the
a month’s
reporter asks local residents if they think
shutting down for the month of August is a |
good or bad idea. Today’s question is:

holiday. Inquiring

Should businesses close
for the month of August?

Sarah Nair

North Vancouver

No, definitely not,
because people like to
shop anytime of day.
Why should we follow
what they do in other
countries?

Basil Van Riet

North Vancouver

It’s not a good idea,
because anyone working
is taking holidays. in the
summer. Businesses
should be open to make it
more accessible for when
you're on holidays. But
there are some seasonal
industries.

Roberta Hjorthoy

If I needed something, |
couldn't buy it and
there’s always a need for
other businesses.

Robert Horton
North Vancouver
tt doesn't matter to me,

Scott Gray

North Vancouver

Not for a whole month.
Maybe for a week. But
people get summer vaca-
tions anyways, and with
the recession, most pro-
ple would prefer to work
— they need to work.
