House of Parliament

If when decorating your commons, you like to be liberal with your earnings, but conservative with your spending, plan a tour of Parliament.

Governed by three former Liberty staffers (each aptly titled Minister of Environment, Minister of Interior and Minister of Finance), the new boutique in Gastown is a light and airy space filled with fashionable furniture, like a plush velvet loveseat, and accessories that look posher than their price tags.

We snuck in just before they opened and gushed over all the glam gifts like custom-scented candles, cozy blankets and mod ornaments.

Now it’s up to you to pass the bills.
