Quebec, Canada-based Couche-Tard is hoping to buy Japan-based 7-Eleven: * https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/couche-tard-explainer-1.7326726 https://www.cbc.ca/n

  Couche-Tard is atrociously bad compared with 7-Eleven: - expensive - literally any other 'deppaneur' will give a better price - poor selection of 'food' - it's only carbs, i.e. muffins, croissants. ( no chicken or onigiri or ramens ) - poor selection of beers - mostly cheap brands sold x2, independent deppaneurs sometimes carry craft/micro. Seems that even Montreal has not enough density to justify any meaningful food in deppaneurs.

    The only thing they've got going for them is they're open later (ha) than most independent dépanneurs who close down around when they can't legally sell alcohol. Even then, I think they're just open so there's a worker around for the gas station outside.
