A key hearing with the Ontario Superior Court of Justice was held on Monday, March 17 regarding the future of the Hudson's Bay Company.However, the judge presiding over the creditor protection and restructuring case did not make a decision over triggering the liquidation, instead opting for more time to process the information presented by the retailer, creditors, landlords and other stakeholders.At the time of writing, no decision by the court has been made, but it could come quickly at any time, perhaps later this week.Hudson's Bay has been unable to pay leases, vendors and loan obligations, and is just days away from missing payroll.Liquidation has been identified as the only major way for the company to secure the interim financing it needs, with the company potentially closing at least half of its 80 department stores.

18 h. ago Ontario destinations are becoming popular among people ditching U.S. trips

The pandemic and resulting cost of living crisis may have gotten us down, but Canadian patriotism has quickly rebounded to new heights since the Trump administration imposed steep tariffs on imports from the north (along with, you know, threatening to take us over).In an act of boycott, many from Ontario and across the country are renouncing their travel plans to the U.S. in favour of exploring more of the Great White North and supporting the Canadian economy, alongside purchasing more made-in-Canada goods.Though people have been understandably vocal about cancelling American vacations and otherwise voting with their dollar in light of everything going on, we are seeing more and more stats backing this trend up — for example, the fact that the number of border crossings from Canada to the U.S. has already plunged significantly within a matter of weeks.Airbnb is also seeing a major shift in booking habits, with more Canadia...
