A 14 from the Limited in the U.S should be the same as a 14 in Jacob in Canada.
At least do this for North American sizes. a 14 is a 14 and a 2 is a 2. I don't understand how in one place a 14 can be so huge that you need to drop down 5 sizes and you go into another store and the 14 is too small.

Actually, Canadian sizes are different from US sizes. Notice that after Ralph Lauren bought Club Monaco, that the clothes became bigger? That's because they converted to US sizes. A size 6 from a US brand is a size 8 Canadian. Size 0 at Jacob is like a 00 in most US lines.
