Je trouve ça toujours un peu, comment dire? Voleur. Quand Maxi affiche à 6$ des produits dont le prix de détail clairement suggéré par le manufacturier est... de 5$ directement sur l'emballage. 😒
Maxi. Ben oui, Maxi. Pas une pratique interdite, certes. Mais disons que la morale est ici un peu élastique.
Lies and more lies - Loblaw, Empire, Metro defend against allegations of profiteering in the grocery business:
Loblaw Chairman Galen Weston Jr., “We are actively losing money on core commodities - Milk, vegetable oil, butter, certain cheeses. Our profit doesn't go to me”.
Weston, Sobey’s Michael Medline and Metro’s Eric La Flèche are the ones who need to be transparent.
Prove it to us!

The Man Starving Canada
#TDIH 8 years ago (Mar 2015) #Loblaw alerted the #Competition Bureau to its part in an allegedly industry-wide #PriceFixing agreement to artificially inflate the price of #Bread from 2001 to 2015. #History #Morals
Galen, would like you to believe him now because?
Profits should be struggling too, since the people providing those profits are struggling.

#Loblaw reports $529 million Q4 profit, revenue up nearly 10 per cent, as food prices creep up | The Star
So, question (to which I already know the answer): Are #FoodPrices creeping up because of #inflation? Or are they creeping up because of #CorporateGreed, because corporate #CEOs want to pay out higher #CorporateDividends, because those same CEOs want to pay themselves huge bonuses, because it's always about gouging, about making more and more money, because it's never enough?

@LoblawsON #Loblaw sees strong annual #profit on steady demand for essentials. #Grocery retailers that are seeing growing profits should stop blaming inflationary pricing on suppliers. This is #gouging of consumers https://www.reuters.com/business/retail-consumer/loblaw-sees-strong-annual-profit-steady-demand-essentials-2023-02-23/

#SCAM alert: If you are a member of the PC Insider's program (#Loblaw), be aware that their phone number has been hijacked by a MedicAlert sales scheme. You'd think a company the size (and profitability) of Loblaw wouldn't let this happen. There appears to be no way now to reach customer service other than by online message. For reference, the number is 1-833-724-6743 and is still being given out by staff. (Note this is different from the PC Optimum program). #shopping #PresidentsChoice

In Canadian first, Gatik and Loblaw take safety drivers out of autonomous delivery trucks
> Toronto and Palo Alto-based autonomous trucking company Gatik is setting fully driverless commercial trucks on the streets of Ontario.
> Gatik announced Wednesday that through its partnership with Loblaw [Canada’s largest grocer], the startup is taking safety drivers out of its vehicle – making them fully autonomous.
> The move marks a Canadian first for fully driverless vehicles, as Gatik claimed that this is the first time that an autonomous trucking company has removed the safety driver from a daily delivery route in the country.
