we need govt run grocery stores to provide a price comparison to the grocery cartel in this country which only seeks to enrich itself and its weird looking CEOs

Think for a moment, 🇺🇸 owned media in Canada is telling you Canadian and 🇺🇸 grocery stores in Canada have to raise prices while turning record profits, knowing we have to buy food. This is corruption, this is conspiracy, this should not stand.

No one finds it strange that on the day Trump announces his “what are groceries” philosophical sophistry that grocery stores raise prices? Come on now. We’re smarter than that.

Insurance industry told they'd have to cut prices by X amount by certain date, they raise ALL rates 2X that weeks before. Ctax comers off pump price, O&G drops price 2X the Ctax, then after a few weeks, gas is back up to where it was W Ctax.
See how it works? They all think we're stupid.

Price-fixing? It’s not like they’ve never done that before.

It's pretty blatant. "People have disposable income? We won't stand for it!!"

Grocery chains the scourge of society. It's price fixing at it's finest
