TRU up here is in a different position than TRU US when it went bankrupt.
However that doesn't mean it won't/can't happen here. Esepcially with the new pricing increases. It could result in a big enough drop in sales that it hurts.
The biggest problem for retailers in these types of situations is customer perception. It can cause a shift in customers perception, and buying habits. Which may not be immediately noticeable, and by the time the trend is noticed it may be too late to get those customers back.
In the short term I wouldn't be worried, but as I said, never say never.
