Bankruptcy does not necessarily mean shuttering. I have not been following this story but I presume they will reorganize. In any event, I would assume both would be sold if they could not make it out of bankruptcy protection.

They will almost certainly reorganize. They're dealing with the same thing that Toys R Us dealt with regarding private equity, leveraged buyouts, a lot of debt . . . Covid was just the straw that broke the camels back. Yet another company basically run into bankruptcy while making a lot of private investors really rich. Definitely need to see some more government regulation of this sort of activity.

They'll be back eventually.

According to CBC News, the provincial government is involved and will work with the existing investors or a buyer.
