Any excuse for Loblaws to raise their prices even higher than they have been.

Loblaws making increasing profit, dividends and stock buybacks, raises prices while citing tariffs

LOL

Mark Miller himself said we would be in a recession if not for mass immigration of 1.4 million people in a year.

Yes, Canada uses immigration to prop up our economy due to our declining birth rate and our cancerous economic system. What does that have to do with Loblaw's price gouging?

People will do anything but blame corporations for their behaviour.

If we tax them prices will go up! Of course they raised prices, we didn't make enough eye contact while we fellated the board!

Funny it's never "raising prices is pointless, people will just demand higher wages!"

The TFW policy on immigration is terrible and an issue absolutely, but you're using it as a whataboutism away from the topic at hand -- that is chiefly a Loblaws decision to screw over people and reap the benefits from it.
