There definitely are camera stores at my city, although being the second largest city of Germany may make it a poor comparison to most other cities.
On one of my visits to one of the oldest such stores I witnessed a lady coming in, wanting to purchase a new Camera. She said the sales person that she would like to go with Canon, as she already had an old rebel and a kit lens in the past. I was pretty surprised when I heard them answer that she might want to consider other brands, as Canon had struggled to compete with newer offerings and her kit lens didn't tie her into the ecosystem. I didn't listen to the rest of the exchange.
The point here is, the endless 'Canon is doomed' talk may not really get through to people who don't visit forums to such a degree as us folks here. But it can still reach them in other ways.
On the other hand, I know two people who wanted to go for a better camera than their smartphone and ended up with Rebels (800D and 200D). They weren't influenced by me, so Canon's definitely still appealing to a lot of people. Obviously, the market share numbers are far better proof of this than anecdotes
Guess I don't really have a point here. Just wanted to share an experience regarding the existance of camera stores and people purchasing Canon.
In the twisted reality that is the internet, none of this matters anyway. Canon is doomed
