Utter rubbish! The Fox & Fiddle being closed to make way for another tower block!! I can assure you that no way would that tower block have the stories to tell in years to come, of social nights out and party antics that the F & F would. For me the F & F was the hub of social life at the Canadiana! Throughout my whole weeks stay I don't think I missed one night! It was a way of socialising with new arrivals, current hostel buddies and a venue of farewells. Many a friendship has been created in the walls of that pub, many friendships which remain today. So Bill, Bryn, Rick, Naleash, Michel, Masa, Rob, Nancy, Denise, Stephen, Jane, Cordelia, and all the others whom were there - I take a moment to raise a glass (albeit a pint of Honey Brown, Sleeman's or what ever other substance was your tipple) To the Fox and Fiddle!!! xxx The worst news I have had this year!!!

If you don't know who I am, then you probably have never been to the fox on a Monday night before lol! But it's ME! Your fave karaoke host that brings the noise every week :) First off, I would love to thank everyone from the hostel that has helped make the last 7 years of my stay at the Fox so wonderful! I have met tons of new and interesting people from all corners of the world and you truly have enriched my life in wonderous ways! It will be very sad that such an iconic venue is shutting down, BUT never fear, talks are in the works for scouting a new location just a hop, jump and a skip away! Even if the Fox chooses not to relocate, I will set up shop at a bar (can't list the name yet for privacy issues) right around the corner from you. That way we can carry on our tradition of Monday night shitshows! lol! Again, my thanks and big love to all of you past and present <3 Richie Rich GINK Entertainment Karaokerich@gmail.com Hey everyone!

Some of my best nights of my year in Canada were at the Fox. It's a joke. Where are we supposed to go now!!! Whose bright idea was this? Can we petition? I emailed the Fox website but they didn't get back to me. I'm sooo angry about this. I'm coming back on June 12th for a vacation but part of me feels it wont even be worth coming. I was so excited about wings and karaoke. Can someone chain themselves to the railings!!! This cannot be happening. Some of my best nights of my year in Canada were at the Fox. It’s a joke.

Long live the King! When I fist came to Toronto there where two places you would drink at, the Peel Pub (which served nasty food) and the Fox!... I don't know what the Canadiana backpacker is supposed to do now, especially in the winter (everyone obeys the three block radius)? The King is dead… Long live the King!
