They'll hire Canadian lawyers, but only to advise head office on local matters. They'll also hire some butt licker president of Target (Canada) ltd. When Minneapolis calls, he'll jump.
I doubt they'll need a Canadian advertising firm. They've done 0 Canadian advertising thus far yet Canadians, for reasons that I fail to comprehend, seem rather anxious to buy their cheap Chinese made crap there. Their American ads seem to be working just fine. (plus all the free advertising they're getting in the 'business' media)
If Canadians know best how to appeal to Canadian buyers then why are there hardly any Canadian stores left? Probably for the same reason that Canadian firms call themselves 'Boston Pizza' and 'New York Fries'.
