tuques are a type of knitted hat usually, not specific to winter.
them generalizing a section including tuques as hats is correct, i dont think i have seen a "tuques" section in any canadian store, they would be in the hat section.
toques are hardly a canadian thing, and alot of canadians refer to them as beanies.
target did not fail cause they werent canadian enough(is anything really canadian?), they failed due to locations, business model, inventory, and technical issues on their backend.
if anything they failed because they werent "american" enough, as canadians were expecting a similar experience to USA target shopping
- sandworm101 11y ago>> is anything really canadian? Yes. Many things. Watch TV? Vancouver? Nickleback? Or drake? Or pretty much 1/3 of Hollywood? Canada and canadians are very over-represented in US culture. They are just hard to spot. Cruz 2016 -
- sergers 11y agowhat i meant was, besides originated/born in canada, what truly makes anything canadian? minus drake who does alot for toronto, what do any entertainment/sports/actor/star from Canada still live in canada or represent themselves as canadian or produce a unique viewpoint that is canadian. canadian content is usually pretty boring on TV. there have been some good original shows, but few. i am born and raised in vancouver, continue to live here, 4th generation of my family to be born in canada.
- jessaustin 11y agoWell Nickelback is obviously Canadian, but that third of Hollywood you're talking about tries very hard to blend in.
- hluska 11y agoNote that I did not exclude location and supply chain problems as part of their downfall, but I don't believe that their problems can be explained solely by those things. Both Loblaws and the Brick had supply chain problems but they both recovered, mostly because they served the Canadian market. Target, on the other hand, couldn't. Their marketing and in-store signage didn't resonate, their quality/price ratio was off, and their selection didn't meet the needs of most Canadians.
- MegaDeKay 11y ago>> "is anything really canadian?" Yes. A Tim Horton's Double Double is the very definition of Canadian. Edit: And yes, "I... Am... Canadian" (which Canadians will recognize as a slogan for Molson Canadian beer, (owned by Coors, BTW)
