Hudson's Bay
Montreal’s iconic department store started as one of Canada’s great heritage brands: It was created as a charter by King Charles in 1670, functioning primarily as a fur trader for its first 200 years. The local souvenir to bring home is the store’s striped wool blanket, commissioned in 1800.
