As part of the $30-million deal, Canadian Tire will take ownership of not only the Hudson’s Bay stripes, but also its company names and other trademarks, such as its historic coat of arms symbol.

    Hudson’s Bay doesn’t exactly have much for a luxury experience either. At one point when I was a kid maybe, but they’re a loooong way from that point in their history.

      To me the Bay kinda feels like a spread out Winners but with way more clearance signs and a perfume section you have to walk through to exit the mall.

      The Bay did sell more luxury items, e.g.g their blankets and classic items, they sold higher end appliances, etc.

      If you go to Canadian Tire for example they’ll sell you a coffee machine, bit they won’t have a $1000 machine on display for you.
