Vittoria Trattoria's ByWard Market rebuild underway after devastating fire
Work is underway to rebuild a popular ByWard Market restaurant that was severely damaged in a fire six years ago. Vittoria Trattoria's ByWard Market location has been shuttered since the spring of 2019 when a blaze that started on the roof caused extensive damage to the historic property at 35 and 37 William St. Co-owner Domenic Santaguida said an earlier plan to reopen the restaurant in 2021 was hampered by the COVID-19 pandemic. "During COVID, we decided to put everything on pause," Santaguida told CBC. The rebuild will include more than just a restaurant. Behind the building's original façade, Santaguida plans to build 14 residential apartments and an event space in the basement. Boost for the ByWard Market Zachary Dayler of the Byward Market District Authority said the return of Vittoria Trattoria is an encouraging sign. "What's great about this is we have a business that's stuck it through over the last number of years," Dayler said. "It's a strong signal, I think, to the strength and attachment that people have to the ByWard Market." The long-awaited rebuild comes as the city seeks public input on its plans to redesign William Street and ByWard Market Square. Santaguida said he plans to reopen the restaurant when that work is complete, but there's still plenty to be done. "A little bit of a weight's been lifted off my shoulders, but there's still a lot of heavy lifting to do," Santaguida said. Santaguida said he's also been dealing with rising construction costs related to the trade war with the U.S. "We're facing either supply-chain problems or increased costs because of tariffs," he said. On Wednesday, work was underway to replace water and sewer infrastructure at the property, which dates back to the 1870s. Santaguida, whose late father was a stonemason who worked on the restoration after the fire, said he's hopeful customers will return to Vittoria Trattoria's ByWard location where he and his family have been doing business for decades.

Montreal bicycle rental company sets new records during public transit strike
Montreal's main bicycle rental company says its users smashed records during the recent transit strike, travelling the equivalent of more than 50 times around the Earth. BIXI Montreal, which rents bikes for short rides, says its users made more than 80,000 trips a day during seven of the nine strike days, including more than 98,500 trips on June 11. Each of those seven days surpassed the busiest day in 2024, when 79,868 trips was a record at the time. Pierre-Luc Marier, spokesman for the non-profit, says the company's bicycles made about 10,000 trips per hour during rush hour on the busiest days. 'It was three rentals per second across the entire network, so it was very, very popular, with a lot of frequency,' he said in a phone interview on Wednesday. In total, he said nearly 700,000 trips were made during the public transit strike, covering about 2,200,000 kilometres, 'which represents 54 times around the Earth.' The strike by 2,400 transit maintenance workers reduced bus and metro service between June 9 and June 17, with full service on the weekend for the Canadian Grand Prix. Service was most limited during the first three days, when the buses and subways didn't run outside morning and afternoon rush hours and late at night. Marier said the company added staff and capacity at docking stations to help ensure renters found a steady supply of bicycles to rent and places to park them. Those staff included 'valets' to smooth the bike-return process by accepting bicycles when docking stations were full. Stations in residential neighbourhoods tend to empty out quickly in the morning as workers head downtown, where docking stations fill up. That pattern is reversed later in the day. Marier said the company had all of its trucks on the road, and even rented extra, to help redistribute the bicycles and ensure an even supply. He said the company uses machine learning, a form of artificial intelligence, to predict the demand at each station. He's optimistic that many of the people who tried the service for the first time during the strike will embrace cycling — and BIXI — on a longer-term basis. The company surveyed new users, and found that 86 per cent of those who tried the service for the first time intended to use it again. 'It's very encouraging for active mobility in general, not only BIXI but for cycling,' he said. This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 18, 2025.

Why Scholar Rock Shares Are Soaring Today
Shares of Scholar Rock Holding (NASDAQ: SRRK) are soaring today, up 13.7% as of 1:14 p.m. ET. The move comes as the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite were up modestly. Scholar Rock, a biopharma company, reported positive results from a phase 2 trial of its muscle-preserving weight-loss therapy. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Continue » Significant results The study evaluated Scholar Rock's apitegromab in combination with Eli Lilly 's blockbuster weight-loss drug tirzepatide (sold as Mounjaro and Zepbound). The combo showed a significant reduction in lean mass loss, a major issue with current GLP-1 treatments. The company says that the trial showed that 30% of the weight lost by users of tirzepatide without apitegromab was lean mass, but that figure was cut in half with the addition of Scholar Rock's drug. The company said the therapy was generally well tolerated, and that the results show it has "the potential to support healthier weight loss for millions of patients on GLP therapies by safely preserving lean mass." A massive market GLP-1 drugs like Eli Lilly's Mounjaro and Novo Nordisk 's Ozempic have been some of the most successful launches of drugs in history. The 2024 market was worth $53.5 billion and is expected to triple in size by 2030. Considering most people's desire to lose fat, not muscle, a drug like Scholar Rock's apitegromab could be massive. With the development of any drug, nothing is guaranteed. While the results of this trial were encouraging, there is a way to go before full Food and Drug Administration approval and commercialization. I think this is a good pick, albeit one that carries some risk. Should you invest $1,000 in Scholar Rock right now?
