On Friday, Jan. 29 2021, Hudson's Bay Company announced that it was terminating the employment of over 600 employees across Canada amid ongoing store closures due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Lior Samfiru, an employment lawyer in Toronto and partner at Samfiru Tumarkin LLP, joined Kelly Cutrara on Global News Radio 640 Toronto to talk about the dozens of HBC employees who have contacted his firm, the inadequate severance packages they have been offered, and the fact that the workers have been wrongfully dismissed.
