I've been saying for a while now that Target should buy Zellers. I can't imagine how well Zellers and the Bay does against Walmart, but I doubt it is very well. In Calgary, Walmarts are all almost madhouses, filled with people at all hours of the day. The busiest Walmart in Western Canada is in Calgary and its always a frigging gong show. Drive to the nearest Zellers or Bay store and they are empty. Plus there are so many malls with a Zellers in one end and a Bay in the other, there is little or business going on.
Target does business like Walmart, cheap, cheap, cheap all the time. Give Walmart some real competition and give the consumers some of the super big sales that I've only heard about and dreamed about.
Sure, its sad that Canadian retailers are getting over-ran by American retailers, but its the same thing in the NHL. All the money is in the US, and its become too hard for Canadian companies/teams to compete.
