Loblaws is out of control

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.

We gotta force each grocer chain other than orange down to 9.9% market share.
What does "Other" encapsulate, anyway? The only independent grocers I ever see are ethnic grocers and in my area they tend to be expensive.
Round here they are Asian grocery stores and they are the only place I shop because they have reasonable meat prices and outstanding produce, compared to Loblaws metro and Sobeys
Hm, maybe I have to shop in other towns. The ones near me are Nigerian and non-descript Middle Eastern. Lots of interesting meats (can buy camel, surprisingly) but it's not cheap.
