The McDonald Home Hardware and Building Centre in Brussels, Ont., remains open despite a partial roof collapse on Monday. The roof gave in under the weight of heavy snow which has plagued the region for most of February.
In a statement on Facebook, the family said, “The front entrance of the store collapsed yesterday evening. We are incredibly thankful that it occurred at a time that no one was in the store. The portion that collapsed is isolated and luckily does not affect the rest of the store. We remain open using the lumber entrance. We greatly appreciate everyone who has reached out with offers to help and with their kind thoughts!”
