Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] | 12. Income Taxes The Company’s effective income tax rate was 39.8% and 39.2% for the thirteen and twenty - six weeks ended February 25, 2017 respectively, as compared to 39.7% and 39.0% for the thirteen and twenty - six weeks ended February 27, 2016 respectively. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense which is consistent with the recognition of these items in prior reporting periods. During the twenty - six weeks ended February 25, 2017, there were no material changes in the amount of unrecognized tax benefits or the amount accrued for interest and penalties. U.S. and Canadian federal income tax statutes have lapsed for filings up to and including fiscal years 2012 and 2008, respectively, and the Company has concluded an audit of U.S. federal income taxes for 2010 and 2011. With a few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state and local income tax examinations for periods prior to fiscal 2011. The Company is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly in the next 12 months.
