Loblaws made over 4 Billion in profit (not revenue) in 2023. If they reduced prices by 25% they still could have made 3 BILLION. Pure greed. If you want a CEO who cares nothing for the well-being of Canadians but is focused purely on making as much money as possible, import a CEO from Europe like Loblaws did.

If I was in charge, I would threaten to seize the food distribution network and lower prices myself if they were unwilling to be responsible with the critical national infrastructure. I bet they would fall in line quick.

As a senior citizen, I'm finding it difficult to manage my expenses. I have to spend $200 for just two weeks' worth of staples, without any meat or other items. Even though I have loyalty points, the prices at the store I shop at are very high. The cost of a can of pork and beans alone is almost $4, which is quite unreasonable. As a result, I have decided to shop elsewhere. The produce they sell is either rotten or so underripe that it never matures. I hope people realize what's going on and stop shopping there. I live in a rural area where the prices are already high and they're only getting worse, making it even more unsustainable for people like me.

Their shopping not there shopping. If the margins haven't increased significantly then they aren't gouging and they aren't the cause of inflation. By all means boycott the chain and hurt their workers and suppliers. You'll still find yourself in the same situation. It's an industry with small margins.

Seriously , just ALL stop going. No excuses, no whining. Just stop. In about 3 weeks Lowlaws will be on its knees.

Loblaws profits are derived from whom they sell to, with a 10% increase in an already significant profit margin. It's costing farmers more to produce and those costs do get forwarded. There is something seriously wrong if the end provider can get away with gouging it's customers. It's not about "some disgruntled customers", we all eat food, kind of hard not to.

This years kit reminded so much of the 89 kit.

Having a organized boycott can help speed things up but we can still do it on our own. I've been boycotting Sobeys (they are even worse than Loblaw) by myself for a year now and did most of my grocery shopping at local meat and veggie markets as well as dollar store. Now I'm so used to it, adding Loblaw to my boycott list doesn't affect me at all, plus I've also saved up so much by shop locally (they are typically 20%-50% cheaper than those greedy grocery chains). We could all do it, it's not hard. At first it may sound like a big change, but once you make the change and make it your everyday life, you can continue it months after months without feeling any inconvenience. 👍 Also trust me, if we really want to make this boycott work, we need much more than one month.

I like No Frills. The difference in prices. In comparison to Lablaws. Is significant. If not for having a local No Frills. I would only be able to afford 1/3rd the amount of groceries. That I can currently buy from No frills.

Meaning, whichever numbers economist try to paint in whatever terms domestically, we know or should know or realise, are minuscule in comparison to the U.S monthly retail sales powerhouse. That is the reality. Competition and spurring competition is not, and has not been a priority, no matter who has been in power at the Federal level. Any non Canadian retailer that sets up shop here, soon leaves because the money just isn’t here. Sad but true. If Canada was truly interested in driving down prices, then a lot of changes would have to be made at the Federal level to allow for such. Have you heard this as a priority by any leader ?

@@seanwebb605 Loblaws just posted their first quarterly earnings and they made another record breaking profit of SIX BILLION DOLLARS. That's in profit. Do I sound like I don't know what's going on? Call out nonsense on PP's top advisor who is a Loblaws lobbyist!

Conservative campaign chair and top leadership strategy adviser to Pierre Poilievre is the CEO of a Loblaws lobbyist firm. But they blame Liberals for high grocery costs while Loblaws smashed records with $1.9 Billion in net profit for 2022, compared to $800 Million in 2019, when they took $12 Million in federal grants to buy new energy efficient fridges. That's a Loblaws profit increase of 237.5% over pre-pandemic levels.Trudeau is standing up to greedy oil companies and grocers who are piling up massive profits under the guide of inflationary increases. He is also handing out grocery rebates, climate action incentive rebates, doubling HST refunds, hiring thousands of new gov't jobs, and offering many other programs to help those most in need that Conservatives would like to cut. PP VOTED NO ON INITIATIVES PUT FORTH BY THE LIBERALS AND NDP TO ASSIST WITH GROCERY, HEALTH CARE AND HOUSING. Sheesh you PP supporters just can't stop putting your ignorance on display.

India energy (oil, coal) consumption will be epic as it industrializes (akin to China). Oil will be around for a long time. EV experiment is faltering. Anyways, EVs will only have a minor impact on CO2s.

west going left and left? 😮

Unless we get fusion power soon, we will never transition away from fossil fuels - just as we have never met a carbon emissions reduction target since the 1990s (that is, we never have). Renewable energy is growing, but so is global demand for energy - faster than the growth in renewables. Renewable energy itself is new and flawed. For example, we are just starting to see the downside of EVs - from lithium mine eco-disasters to failing Salmon runs. Politicians want to make us think the party can go on forever - they'll just hook us up to some new drug. Pick your poison. I say better the devil we know.

Canada’s carbon-tax began in 2007 when Alberta's majority PC gov't created a carbon levy. In 2008 the Harper gov't (including Poilievre) called carbon trading a “key part” of their emissions plan and campaigned on a cap and trade system. But now in campaign mode, they want you to forget that this was their idea so they can blame Trudeau. Non-partisan economists agree that the carbon rebate is the most cost effective solution to reducing emissions and address climate change, and just one tool of many that need to be deployed. JT has asked for alternative solutions. The Cons say "Sell more LNG, it's Common Sense." But that's insane! The world has to get off fossil fuels now. Big Oil has been stalling reduction and pushing growth for 50 years, but the weaning period is over. How much will groceries cost after mega-drought arrives and everything cooks under heat-domes? How much will housing cost when the houses burn down from uncontrollable wildfires and are flooded and flattened by monster hurricanes? Can't you see that worrying about pennies today (3 cents/L) will not take care of the dollars of tomorrow (our very existence)?

Alberta premiere Danielle Smith attended Poilievre's Axe the Tax rally to protest the 3 cent gas price increase due to increased carbon rebates, while her own government simultaneously increased their provincial gas tax by 4 cents with no rebate. She says the tax increase is needed for highway repair, although Ottawa pays 60% of these infrastructure renewal costs. What a wiener.

I have to go a REALLY long way with no car to find a store that doesn’t belong to the Loblaws conglomerate. Even the so called Independent🙄 grocer is Loblaws owned. That is the problem. There is no competition. Where do I FIND competition? And I’m not rural, I’m in south Etobicoke.

It's a very low margins business. The profits are made in volume. A small grocer with little floor space and limited hours of operation couldn't possibly earn a profit unless they charged a premium price. The boutique grocer would cost you far more money. We as consumers made price king. We're in part responsible for bland stores, low grocery store worker wages by insisting on the lowest price possible. Sad to say that the prices were artificially low for many reasons. Now we have had supply chain shocks, increased wages for seasonal workers (good) a push for an end to child labour in chocolate and other areas (good) and a war between Ukraine and Russia (not good) who produced much of the world's grain products. By all means let's whine about a monopoly that doesn't really exist. I'm perfectly fine with having a conversation about the hyper attention of shareholder value, executive compensation, corporate taxes and share buy back programs. I'm open to a conversation regarding gig workers who deliver the orders for the different apps. But we have to be serious.
