Steve's Music,Rideau Street,Byward Market

Steve's Music, a long-standing store in the ByWard Market area of Ottawa, is relocating after 42 years due to rising crime and ongoing challenges. The store manager, Daniel Sauvé, explains the decision was made to address increasing criminal activity and the strain of recent events.
