U.S. retailer Target to promote Canadian products on shelves next year

Before setting foot in Canada next year U.S. retail giant Target must ensure it will promote Canadian cultural content.

According to the Canadian Press Heritage Minister James Moore ordered an Investment Canada Act review on the company to make sure Canadian authors, musicians and filmmakers are represented on its shelves.

The second biggest discount retailer in America after Wal-Mart is set to open over 125 stores across Canada next year.  Many retail spaces formerly occupied by Zellers were bought from the Hudson's Bay Company to facilitate the move.
