Have signed the petition to investigate #Loblaws for their absurd price increases on food via Change.org: https://chng.it/BLDMrDf8FC
Due to consolidation in the Canadian grocery market in the past few decades, too much power is in the hands of a few large corporations and they are putting profit and shareholder dividends ahead of providing the basic needs of customers who have struggled to afford a basic human right: food.
I will also avoid visiting all Loblaws-owned outlets in the month of May.
One additional lingering point in my mind on this topic makes me think of the historic actions taken by rogue governments in which they squeeze and attempt to nefariously control their populations through artificial scarcity and potentially resulting famine. I certainly hope that's not going to be an unconscious outcome of the actions of a corporation like #Loblaws (or #EmpireLtd , for that matter [with that ominous corporate name rather concerning in itself]). #BoycottLoblaws
