One of the “alerts” I received about Niagara Falls included this blurb from the Gruener Family Blog:
Tomorrow, we’re off to Niagara Falls, Ontario to stay at the DoubleTree Resort Lodge and Spa for two nights and wander around Niagara Falls and the Clifton Hill area. Low-key and relaxing, just what we need while we’ve still got the chance!
If you meet them or see them, say Hi! 
From the Niagara Falls Review:
One holiday commemorates soldiers who lost their lives in war and the other marks the birthday of Queen Victoria.
Despite their varied origins, the Memorial and Victoria Day long weekends have long been the unofficial kickoff to the start of another tourism season in Niagara.
In the past, the back-to-back holidays resulted in a surge of visitors to the Honeymoon Capital of the World.
But not this year.
While business was brisk during the Victoria Day weekend, there was a marked decrease in visitors over the American holiday.
From the Niagara Falls Review:
The next time Falls Management Co., does its annual “attitude survey” of Niagara’s 5,000 casino workers, the company will share the results with Ontario infrastructure minister David Caplan, who oversees Ontario’s gambling industry.
Clare Copeland, Falls Management’s chief executive officer, made the offer Thursday during a meeting with Caplan and Niagara Falls politicians, who were looking for ways to improve the relationship between the casinos and their host community.
“The message was pretty clear today. There has to be a better employer-employee relationship,” said Niagara Falls MPP Kim Craitor, who added he has received 300 complaints from employees and former employees in the past four months. Craitor and city councillors said they field too many calls about reduced hours, working conditions and the casinos’ use of contract workers.
