In "A Call to Joy," a one-minute commercial for Canadian department store Hudson's Bay, the actresses are seen dressing up, decorating, exchanging gifts and enjoying warm drinks by a fireplace in a Hudson's Bay store window.

Schitt's Creek swept the comedy categories at the Emmy Awards in September, winning a total of seven prizes, including the top honor for Outstanding Comedy Series.

O'Hara, Eugene Levy and Annie Murphy earned the statuettes for Outstanding Lead Actress and Actor and Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy, respectively.

Levy's real-life son Daniel also picked up the prizes for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy and Outstanding Writing for a Comedy.

The younger Levy and Andrew Cividino shared the prize for Outstanding Directing For a Comedy Series, as well.

The sitcom is about a wealthy couple forced to relocate with their adult children to the titular small town after they lose their fortune. It wrapped up its sixth and final season this spring.
