Nordstrom Latest U.S. Chain to Join the Canadian Retail Gold Rush

By Doug Stephens

Last week, upscale U.S. retailer Nordstrom was the latest in a long list of U.S. retailers who have declared their intent to enter the Canadian market.  The chain announced plans to open four stores (Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto and Ottawa) by 2015.

I had a great chat with CBC Radio’s Stephen Quinn in Vancouver about why Nordstrom and other U.S. retailers are intent on Canada and and how Canadian consumers stand to benefit from it.
