Original Toronto Star caption: His store stays open on Sundays ; and Michael McCord; manager of Times Square Book Store; scoffs at the Lord's Day Act; which he calls a funny little law left over from another time. In any case; that law has never been applied against a bookstore in Toronto; and one Metropolitan Toronto police sergeant explains that this is because there is some question of just how far law enforcement should go.
