Shoppers carry their purchases down a stairwell due to the escalators and elevators being disabled, at the flagship downtown Hudson's Bay store in Vancouver, on Monday, March 24, 2025. Hudson's Bay was given court approval on Friday to begin liquidating all but six of its 80 department stores, 13 Saks Off Fifth locations and three Saks Fifth Avenue shops in Canada. Lawyers for the struggling retailer known for being Canada's oldest company said its plan was to start the selloff Monday. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Darryl Dyck
