That is not nearly enough.

When you do this, you have to look at how much they actually sold.

  • Subpoena them for sales data
  • Look at products with fake labels vs with labels vs US non-labelled.
  • Run a regression analysis that incorporates the product type and price.
  • Use differerences between true label increases, US decreases, and estimate the ACTUAL sales
  • Fine them for that plus 50-100%, and a flat fee.

And I know this is not going to be a small amount of data to work with, I would volunteer my time just to do this analysis, and as part of the fine they should just be able to use Loblaws Digital's servers, with an NDA to certify they won't disclose anything not related.

Seems like a lot of math they could argue.

Fine them daily gross income for each identified product for each day since the last inspection with no findings.

Make them beg for more frequent inspections.

Aye, I could accept that.
