As Target gets permission to enter Canada....a spinoff deal was made to further the benefit to Canadians beyond just Target jobs....
In approving Target, Heritage Minister James Moore said Target plans to create more than 20,000 new jobs and has committed to sell uniquely Canadian cultural products in its Canadian stores.
Our government is committed to strengthening Canada’s economy in all sectors, especially arts and culture,” Moore said in a statement Friday. “Target’s investment in Canada’s economy shows our plan is working and will be of great benefit to Canadian workers, Canadian consumers and their families.”
The review was launched in March to see if Target’s plan to open stores in Canada would be of net benefit to the country.
As part of the approval, Target has committed to employ 100 to 200 people at each store as well as sell and promote Canadian cultural products.
Target has also agreed to support Canadian cultural events and organizations.
