New court filings show a holding company owned by David Thomson, of Thomson Reuters, wants to buy the royal charter that formed the Hudson’s Bay retailer for at least $15 million and donate it to the Archives of Manitoba.
The department store previously announced it would seek court approval next month to sell the charter for $12.5 million to a holding company belonging to the Weston family, which intends to donate it to the Canadian Museum of History.
