This is pretty much the reason why US companies are starting to expand into Canada. US sales are fairly flat and there seems to be some faux cartel pricing with certain segments of retail goods.
I know that with the retailer I work for, the Canadian Division is significantly outperforming the US one, in the realm of 3-6x profits per store. This is a fairly common narrative with a lot of companies with US wings.
