Montreal Hudson's Bay liquidation draws crowds before store closes

Hudson's Bay in downtown Montreal is liquidating its inventory, drawing hundreds of shoppers seeking deals before the store's closure. The liquidation sale, offering discounts of 10% to 70%, began Friday, leading to long lines and quickly depleted shelves across the four-story department store. The company filed for creditor protection on March 7th. The iconic store's closure on Sainte-Catherine Street has disappointed many customers, some of whom were visiting for the first time. The company is closing six stores after a restructuring attempt.
