Walmart in Canada is much, much nicer than in the US. In the US, we almost never went to Walmart and preferred shopping at Target. When we moved back to Canada, we initially were delighted that there was now a Target store in our area. We had horrible experiences and it turned us off completely.

I feel really bad for the people who lost their jobs.. for young people in their first job, it might be okay. For older folks who probably quit a job some place else, it is really a hard experience.

Walmart stores in Toronto that I visited, definitely seemed crowded with long check outs. Other cities in Ontario, the checkouts seem to be adequately staffed. I'm surprised how different Walmart Canada is from the US operation!
