“During the first quarter of 2022, we saw strong same-store sales growth in Canada and the U.S. Demand for Boyd’s services continued to substantially exceed capacity in all U.S. markets,” Timothy O’Day, Boyd Group president and CEO, said in a company statement. “During the latter part of the first quarter, we experienced some modest recovery of demand for services in Canada as remaining pandemic restrictions were lifted in most provinces. The ability to service demand continues to be constrained by market conditions, including labor availability in U.S. markets, and parts supply chain issues throughout North America.”
