Even the Bay downtown looked great after they redid it. But if you’re not committed to the business you’re in, whatever it is, you’ll fail. If retail for today’s consumer is all about “experiences” a large department store should be able to deliver that in spades.

I wonder what happened to all the Nordstrom Vancouver customers? Over to Holt Renfrew? It would be interesting to see if Simons tried to open in downtown Vancouver if they could get anywhere close to Nordstrom's numbers even with the different product lines..
Nationally the strongest retailers (minus supermarkets) are probably Ikea, Canadian Tire, Walmart, Costco and Amazon?
