Judge Halts Retailer’s Bid for Former Hudson’s Bay Space at Yorkdale

Judge blocks department store from moving into former HBC space at Yorkdale mall. A proposed plan to open a new retailer in the former Hudson’s Bay space at Yorkdale Shopping Centre has been stopped by an Ontario judge. The decision blocks a deal that would have transferred the large anchor location to a discount-focused department store operator. The court found that the arrangement did not meet the standards required for such a major tenancy change, supporting Yorkdale’s position that the retailer was not an appropriate fit for the mall’s upscale environment. The ruling ends months of dispute over the future of the vacant three-level space and underscores the challenges malls face as they try to repurpose former department store footprints. Yorkdale, known for its luxury brands and high-end positioning, is now expected to pursue alternatives that better align with its long‑term strategy.

Tesla Raises Prices in Canada by Up to $9,000 Starting February 1

 

Tesla Inc. has announced a significant price increase for its vehicles in Canada, effective February 1. The price hike will impact all trims of the Model 3, Model Y, Model S, and Model X. The most substantial increase will be seen in the Model 3, with prices rising by up to $9,000. Other models, including the Model Y, Model S, and Model X, will see increases of up to $4,000.

Tesla has not provided a specific reason for the price increase, but it coincides with the potential imposition of tariffs by the U.S. government. Additionally, the weakening Canadian dollar and higher costs compared to U.S. pricing have been cited as contributing factors.

This price adjustment comes on the heels of an earlier $1,000 increase in January, which pushed the Model 3 and Model Y out of eligibility for federal electric vehicle incentives. With the federal iZEV rebate program also running out of funds, the cost of purchasing a new Tesla in Canada is set to rise even further.

Tesla enthusiasts and potential buyers are now faced with higher price tags, raising questions about the affordability and demand for electric vehicles in the Canadian market.
