A sub devoted to highlighting the ridiculous cost of living in Canada right now. We’d like to thank our corporate overlord Galen Weston Jr. of Loblaws for continually raising grocery prices so he can get a big fat bonus cheque every year while the rest of Canadians struggle to make ends meet.

Time to institute a specific tax on Loblaw, Empire, Metro and Save-On that goes directly to farmers.

I would add, though, that while farming is not always profitable, the bulk of land is owned by "farmers" that are very wealthy. They're more like real estate investors that employ professional farm managers, then actual farmers.
