	The increasing ties to the American company helped lead to the Stewart family's sale of the company to Reynolds in 1974. The company was thereafter known as '''R. J. R. Macdonald'''. This led to the Canadian production of some of Reynold's brands and trademarks in the Canadian market, most notably Vantage and Cavalier. More was also imported into Canada begining in the mid-1970s. Also starting in the mid-1970s and continuing through the late 1980s, Macdonald vastly expanded the Export "A" line with a wide range of perceived strengths in flavouring.

Reynolds' international concerns were bought by Japan Tobacco, or, more specifically, by Japan Tobacco International, created by Japan Tobacco and based in Geneva, Switzerland. This led to Reynolds' former Canadian branch to being renamed '''J. T. I. Macdonald'''. Currently, the company is in third place in the Canadian market, after Imperial Tobacco and Rothmans Benson & Hedges. Brands introduced since the Japan Tobacco acquistion include the relaunch of Macdonald Special as a discount brand, XS (a slim cigarette), Mirage (reputed to have less of a tobacco smell when smoked), and Fusion (with a fluted filter tip).
