A Winnipeg collectible shop that has served customers for more than two decades says it is pressing on despite repeated break-ins, vandalism and rising security costs that the owner says have become part of daily operations. “Last year we had people smash cameras outside, we had people coming in to demand things,” said Paille. He said theft and vandalism became routine in 2025, costing the business thousands of dollars each month. “We have probably 100 keys for locks, it feels like we’re a jewelry store and we are a toy store,” said Paille. To deter theft, the store now uses more than 60 security cameras, with additional cameras still being added.
