You're in Ontario right?  Apparently the RCSS is called Zehrs in Ontario.
Does that help?

Not speaking for my former employer, but the Real Canadian Superstore banner
is not used in the Ontario market, at least not anymore.  All Superstore
locations here were converted into Loblaws banner stores about a year or two
ago.  While Zehrs is another banner of Loblaw Companies, I do not believe it
sells Lego, it is a grocery store.

Some Loblaws stores will sell general merchandise, but it's usually things
like deck chairs, children's clothing, beach towels, and other seasonal
stuff.  There's also some books, magazines and videos, but the closest I've
ever seen Lego in a Southern Ontario Weston Group store was in the form of
the Klutz books...and at that, I couldn't actually find the Lego edition.

G'Day A lot of the newer or rebannered stores were selling some of the smaller sets ($3.00) price range, you might want to check the new store at Bathurst and St Clair subway station. Otherwise there are scatterings at Burnhamthorpe and 427, (...) (24 years ago, 6-Mar-01, to lugnet.loc.ca)

(...) The Zehrs we have in Windsor sells LEGO here and there. The look and feel of our Zehr's is the same as I've seen in some Loblaws, and also in the Real Atlantic Superstore out east, so I assume they're all related. KDJ ___...___ LUGNETer #203, (...) (24 years ago, 8-Mar-01, to lugnet.loc.ca)
