Yeah, this is at most a minor logistics rerouting. Doesn't impact us.
No, it will affect us. Not massively, but it will, since now the producers will have to divide their shipments to route around the US. This will add to extra shipping since they benefit less from bulk.
In addition, while we'll cut out the US middlemen, there'll likely be a Canadian middleman taking their place to do distribution on a more local level, negating any cost savings from removing a step from the process.
Still a minor logistics issue, but one that'll likely take several months at least to resolve that'll land us with a few points higher in cost.
And they’ll just use it as an excuse to price gouge. No matter what you lose.
Won't stop Canadian retailers from using that as a cover to raise prices. I think we learned how this works over the last few years.
Canadian retailers never needed an excuse to raise prices. They have and will always charge the max amount they think they can get away with.
No one ever leaves money on the table.
Fuck the Westons, grocery stires should be nationalized
No thanks. I would prefer more grocery options not less
Ummm, all the grocery stires are all owned by Lawblaws or Sobeys, we already have no choice here anyways. At least if Canadians own it we wont be price gouged like with the Westons
