U.S. fashion retailer Abercrombie & Fitch Co. opened its first three stores in Canada yesterday, bringing its hip but pricey casual styles to a market known for its thrifty consumers.
In its first foray outside of the United States, Abercrombie launched one store under its namesake and two Hollister outlets -- which carry less expensive lines -- in the Toronto area, enjoying a "massive" response, said Tom Lennox, spokesman for the company.

What newspaper was this from? The Toronto Globe and Mail?
Their research skills are questionable...
Abercrombie & Fitch had a large store here in Montreal for at least a couple of years when the Place Montreal Trust shopping mall opened on Ste-Catherine Street and McGill College Avenue at the end of the 1980s.
