The League Takes on City Hall

At the City of Edmonton website, you can view an Executive meeting where members of the McCauley Community League address City Council over the disproportionate concentration of social housing in the area. This meeting was brought about by the announcement of new social housing developments in the area, such as Iris Court. The video only seems to work if you are using Internet Explorer.

March's Theme: Our Families

March's theme is "Our Families." We are looking for articles on these topics:

1) What is it like raising a family in Boyle or McCauley?
2) Who is in your family? Tell us about your children, spouse, parents, grandparents . . . even if they don't live in the area.
3) Different generations ...of the same family who live in the area (eg.the Bubels)
4) How is the community like a family?
5) Are there people in your life you are not related to by blood, yet you consider them family?

Of course, we also want articles on community news and events. If you have any ideas, let me know!

Looking Towards March

Vikki and I are hard at work laying out the February issue. It is time to start looking in March's direction. The theme is going to be "Our Families." We are looking for articles on the following topics:

1) What is it like raising a family in Boyle or McCauley?
2) Who is in your family? Tell us about your children, spouse, parents, grandparents . . . even if they don't live in the area.
3) Different generations of the same family who live in the area (eg.the Bubels)
4) How is the community like a family?
5) Are there people in your life you are not related to by blood, yet you consider them family?

As you can see, we're using the term "family" in a broad sense to include community and friends.

If you have any specific ideas, please contact me!

Padmanadi to Open Second Location

Boyle McCauley News is privileged to bring you some breaking news. We chose to put it on our blog, since it is still a couple of weeks before the February issue hits the streets, and we wanted to make sure we got the scoop out first.


Padmanadi, the popular vegan restaurant in Chinatown, will open a second location on May 21. According to owner Kasim Kasim, the restaurant will bear the same name, have a slight different (but still all vegan) menu, and house a larger seating area. The new location will be situated just outside of McCauley's borders at 101 Street and 107 Avenue. Padmanadi's current restaurant is on 97 Street and 106 Avenue and is one of Chinatown's most popular eateries.
