As you grew up as a Canadian. You may remember that shopping malls were the shopping destination for Canadians in the 1980s. In the 1990s, Big box stores and power centres began to rise resulting in dead malls. There is only half of the footage of these shopping malls.

So, what are you looking for? Mall interiors? Even at the time it was difficult to shoot things like that on video cameras as mall security would confiscate your tapes unless you had a legitimate reason for filming. That's understandable as the feeling was you were casing the place out for possible theft. I'd have to check some of my oldest footage to see if I filmed anything like that. Mostly, it was conventions, convention guests and the like and my vacation travels...

I was thinking its hard to find a mall directory for every mall in Canada especially that there's a lot of malls from that time period.

I haven't had a cup of coffee in the morning
