The Bay is a chain of 100 fashion department stores that operate across Canada. The stores are full-line department stores, with a focus on apparel, accessories, and home goods. Most price points are mid to upper mid, however there is an assortment of everyday low price merchandise. In Quebec, the chain is known as la Baie. The Bay can be compared to Sears Canada department stores. The Bay is a division of the Hudson's Bay Company, Canada's largest department store retailer and oldest corporation.
(In both French and English the definite article is not capitalized unless at the beginning of a sentence. So it is the Bay and la Baie.)
