More like 24,000 according to the Board of Health. So, 65 years. I assume it counts chains. -- nm

Yeah, chains should be collapsed into a single entity. I've been considering this for my grubthing site. -- nm

That sounds about right. Greater Victoria is about 2,000 food facilities, so ~1200 restaurants -- nm
