I saw a news article this morning noting that Canon is reducing almost 20% of their authorized dealers. That includes a local dealer near Spokane where I often order my Canon gear just to keep them going, their employees are all pro photographers, but they have slowly withered away. This might be a final blow, the owner had told me that Nikon was treating them poorly a few years back.
Many are small dealers, but there are some big names on the list too.
Its just another sign of the times and camera manufacturers trying to cut costs where the low sales costs more to support than it brings in.
