The company is closing down all of the stores they have across the nation, and will be winding down operations over the next 8 weeks. Approximately 90 jobs will be affected, and so far there’s been no reason given on why the stores are closing. According to the company’s official website, there are 14 stores throughout Canada:

  • Three in the Greater Vancouver Area.
