Wow! Macy's of the North going American! I never thought I'd see the day.

Spokane House, a Hudson's Bay outpost founded in 1804 (or thereabouts) is situated about five miles from my house. It was the first white settlement in what is now the state of Washington.

Fort Connah, near St. Igatius Montana, is another HBC outpost from the fur trade. As was Ft. Hall several hundred miles south in Idaho.

HBC is a very old company, maybe one of the oldest in the world? Beretta might be older. They make pistols used by the US Army.
