    For anyone paying attention to the American side e.i. Conservatives’ wet dream. They’ve probably noticed that the tariffs has been a lot worse for small businesses compared to the corporate counter parts.

    It’s a large reason why they’ve been such willing participants in the whole thing since to short pains for substantial consolidations of the market.

    Honestly, all the brands under Loblaws and Sobeys should be split up again. Consolidation of markets to this point is wrong.

    We need to do this with tons of industries, but especially gas stations too. Phone carriers, internet, etc. need real competition, and 3-5 companies isn’t sufficient.

    Why isn’t it a requirement that all sub-companies don’t have to have the parent company name somewhere on their store and advertisements?

    Like, instead of just “No Frills” on the store it should be required to say “Loblaw’s No Frills” or soemthing so it’s more obvious where your money is going.
