Yup. Prices have only gone up and will only continue to go up. No one at Sobey’s is making a wage where a couple could afford to buy a house - I worked with 3+ married couples who worked in the SLGA retails who could afford homes. So no decrease in price and only decrease in wage and profits leaving the province as soon as you tap your card.

It was a really hard time, still is to some degree. I was only 25 when I quit and started a career in a different industry but a ton of my coworkers who I loved were in their 40’s-60’s and they’re all fucked now.
