A spokesperson for The Keg says it is closing its Mount Royal location after 42 years to push business to a newer location in Mission.

However, Hurtubise says there are many factors affecting the city's restaurant businesses right now.

"The foreign worker programs have been taken away, so that's tough. Minimum wage, the dollar, commodity prices are out of control. It's a whole pile of things."

"Il Sogno. Closed. Brava Bistro...closed. Black Betty...closed. People are just re-evaluating if it makes sense to push this thing or throw in the towel."

The Mount Royal Keg officially closes its doors on Aug. 8. Many former staff from across the country are coming out for the restaurant's final night.
