While we would prefer ordsprog

While we would prefer to own 100 percent of Sears Canada, we are committed to increasing our ownership through this offer in any case.

We believe this is a fair price for Sears Canada. Sears Canada faces tough competition from a slew of retailers, not only in Canada but also those from the U.S. who are making inroads into Canada.
