Mark well my words....in Canada, this is the shopping situation:
no J. Crew,
no Illuminations (one of my faves),
no Nordstroms,
no Bon Marche,
no Filene's,
no Bonwit-Teller,
no Nieman-Marcus,
no Barney's although our Holt Renfrew is a poor ersatz version of Barney's)
Need I go on?

J.Crew was supposed to come up a couple of years ago (when American Eagle did), but pulled out when the dollar fell to $0.63 US. Maybe they'll look into coming up again, especially. Personally, I'm hoping for Ann Taylor and Ann Taylor LOFT to expand up here as they have an excellent petite collection. I'm glad that the Toronto Eaton Centre Banana Republic store has finally got its petites though.
We do have Jacob and Jacob Connexion though
