Jacqui Cohen, Samuel Cohen’s granddaughter, is the owner, president and CEO of the company.
There are 6 locations in Alberta and British Columbia.

On 8 November 1915, "The Assiniboia Club of the University of Saskatchewan" was formed. Essentially a faculty-student discussion group, its initial stated purpose was the "study of foreign problems." Their constitution detailed the club's objectives more specifically: "to gain a more intimate knowledge of the various peoples settled in Western Canada," and to "make a thorough study of the factors which hinder the development of a true Canadian citizenship" with a view to the "betterment of general social conditions." The Assiniboia Club disbanded in 1917, "owing to the War having taken many of the club's most enthusiastic members, and those who might have become members."

Automobiles - Moose Jaw Standard
The Moose Jaw Standard was a Canadian automobile manufactured in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan in 1917.
Five local residents imported the parts to build twenty-five luxury cars from the United States; these were to be powered by Continental engines. Once each investor had a car, they gave up the concern after realizing that no one else was willing to buy. The remaining parts were sold, the engineer was paid off, and the project was wound up.
