said by TheMG:Here in Canada, most if not all Radio Shacks have been bought out by "The Source by Circuit City".
Without getting into the whole mess (and it became one...)
The Source (formerly known as Radio Shack) has been owned by Bell for a couple years now...
Long story short, InterTan operated the Radio Shack brand in Canada; they were bought out by Circuit City, who collapsed shortly after... Bell bought up the pieces; partly to boost their own distribution footprint, and more-so to take away one of Roger's largest retailers. (Before the Bell purchase, RadioShack/The Source was one of Rogers largest distributors)...
The also tried a couple of spin-off brandings - Genexxia (sp?) and THS Studios - to get away from the Radio Shack image - more consumer electrics and gadgets (Genexxia) and accessories/headphones (THS)
