On a serious note like others say, the company could have thanked the worker for his heroics and maybe just disciplined the worker in other ways and then reiterating that message throughout the company (if they were so concerned about policy).
The comment though the Sherriff made: ‘Hey we’re open for business and unarmed. Come on in and take our money,’ is somewhat funny.

Definitely highlights the differences in Canada vs US with regards to our relationship to bear arms.
