Canada's largest chain devoted to bagels has elevated the bagel to a new culinary experience. The chain offers a healthy way to enjoy a sandwich, snack or meal, while providing an alternative to higher fat, fast-food establishments. The bagel has become the ideal convenience food of the 90's - low in fat, high in taste, nutritious and now, convenient, thanks to the expansion of THE GREAT CANADIAN BAGEL.
