They have generic, over-the-counter Zyrtec. Desloratadine and fexofenadine generics were also available OTC. I was amazed. I actually yelled out loud in the pharmacy "OH MY GOD, IT'S ZYRTEC D OTC!!!!" with a huge smile on my face. They probably thought I was crazy. For some reason the pharmacists get to work at "The Bay" which is basically the Canadian equivalent of Macy's. That would be a cool job.

hmm... I don't think I've ever seen a Bay with a pharmacy in it!
 
I work in a pharmacy near the border and we get a lot of Americans who come over for certirizine and desloratidine OTC... also Tylenol #1 is available without prescription (but is behind the counter, not OTC per se) and scopolamine patches are OTC too. The one thing I wish we had was OTC naproxen like in the U.S.!

The Bay I usually go to has a pharmacy. You wouldn't know it unless you happened to be shopping for men's clothing, because it's tucked waaay in the corner right beside the men's discount stuff.
 
I accidently wondered by one as I was in awe of the 5000 people standing around the plasma TV section watching the world cup. You cannucks are nuts about that event, I tells ya! I accidently got caught up in traffic because a bunch of immigrants from Argentina completely took over St. Clair St. in Toronto on my way to Dave & Buster's. They appearently won *a* game.
