Mississauga, Canada – Target opens three new stores in Canada Aug. 1 and plans three more new Canadian stores later in the fall. The stores are located at Erin Mills Town Centre in Mississauga, Ontario; Park Place in Barrie, Ontario and Carrefour Candiac in Candiac, Quebec.



The opening of the three new stores brings the total number Target stores open in Canada to 130. The stores in Barrie and Candiac are new buildings. Target has opened six stores in Canada this year, three of which were built from the ground up.
