J. Pascal's Hardware and Furniture was a Montreal, Quebec, Canada-based chain of hardware stores and furniture stores. ==History== J. Pascal had long been a hardware chain only, but subsequently expanded to furniture retailing. Until the 1970s, the company's name was J. Pascal Hardware Co. After the furniture division was created in the 1980s, the company's corporate name became J. Pascal Inc. Although both operated under the trade name "Pascal", shared a common logo, the hardware and furniture chains were kept separate in terms of operations and outlets. The hardware stores were found mostly in enclosed shopping malls and commercial streets, while the furniture stores were in strip malls. J. Pascal was in business for almost 90 years and operated 26 hardware and furniture stores in the provinces of Quebec, Ontario and New Brunswick before going bankrupt in May 16, 1991. Only the flagship hardware division closed. The spin-off furniture division would survive another two more years before closing in 1994.〔http://www.marquedor.com/telemarque/archives/96-05-17_en.htm〕 After Pascal went out of business, a small furniture chain started to use the name under the trademark "Club Meubles Pascal", resulting in a legal battle with J.Pascal in 1996.〔 Throughout its existence J. Pascal remained a family business, belonging to three generations of the Pascal family. It was founded in 1903 by Jacob Pascal, and then taken over by his sons, Maxwell Pascal, Arthur Pascal, Hyman Pascal, and Cecil Pascal.
