That's a trade I'd be willing to take. Hopefully the selection would be just as good as in the states. Every Target I''ve been to has been better than anything up here for toys.

I'm sure the first store would be in Ontario, but I hope that at least one store will open in the Vancouver area. Preferrably in Metrotown or the Mount Pleasant area.

If they carry it. If it's still being sold by the time they make it to your area.

Re: Target's Drive Into Canada Could Involve 200 Stores

Being that Target is centered and homebased in Minnesota, that might make Winnipeg a likely location as any for stores to open quickly.

In any case, unless the presence of a new retailer expands Hasbro and Mattels desire to distribute product to Canada(ei Tri-logo packaging and whatnot), this likely won't change much.

I'm not sure if this is good or bad in the grand scheme of things.
