Best place to buy a new suit in Ottawa?
I'm hoping to keep the budget under $250 but would potentially splurge for a good deal. I'm looking for something that's good quality and that will last me a few years.

Anyone know where to find this transformers rescue bot in Ottawa?
My son has one humble request from Santa. He wrote his first letter to Santa, and asked for the Transformers airplane rescue bot (Blades). He's 4, and the kind of kid who will pick one thing, and that's all he wants. It's usually great, but this year I can't find it anywhere. It's only $16, but I've checked Toys R Us, Walmart, Loblaws and Canadian Tire. The other toy stores I know don't carry Transformer toys. Has anyone seen it for sale in Ottawa? http://www.hasbro.com/en-us/product/playskool-heroes-transformers-rescue-bots-blades-the-flight-bot-figure:3C28F1BF-5056-9047-F583-E600DFA71904

Wind Mobile in Ottawa
Wind users, how's your wind mobile quality been lately? I live in Orleans and work downtown. Lately I've found that I keep losing my connection constantly while I'm downtown out in the open. I recently upgraded from an s3 to a lg g4 so I'm thinking perhaps my 4 year old phone was better?¿?¿
Anyways, how's your service been? Improving, the same or getting worst?
Edit 1 : I'm referring to data quality. Phone quality has usually been good consistently as long as you're not in a basement or behind heavy walls.
