Original Toronto Star caption: Taking a stand: Citizens jam the North York City Council chamber last night to oppose any move to let retail stores open on Sunday. One official estimated the crowd at more than 750 -- the biggest in the 10-year history of the city hall building. Fifty-four people addressed the session. Council agreed to postpone a decision on the matter until its Feb. 8 meeting.
