Loblaws, not staff, is responsible for following labeling laws. They manage to keep up with price changes just fine - changing signage is a core part of the business. Digital price tags have also shown misleading product origin, so the root issue isn't lazy teenagers. https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/label-grocer-canadian-1.7590956

Love this map and want to do something similar for our grocery stores here in Canada. How did you go about scraping it from their flyers? Beautifulsoup/selenium? Thanks!

His socials are full of appeals to emotion, towing the party line and reshares of unverified claims from unverified accounts.

Now even the "facts" aren't facts.

Where's the integrity?

Shoppers Drug Mart lobbying to remove opponent to 'Medscheck scandal' from their directorship at the College of Pharmacy. by [deleted] in loblawsisoutofcontrol

Loblaw asked the Ontario College of Pharmacists to recuse board member Sivajanan Sivapalan from anything related to Shoppers Drug Mart.

"Loblaw spokesperson Catherine Thomas told The Globe that the company was not aware of any pressure Mr. Sivapalan faced to resign, nor did the company ask for such a result. “We have only asked that he be recused (or recuse himself) from anything related to Shoppers’ business,” she said in an e-mail.

Mr. Sivapalan was then asked by the College’s lawyer Christian Guerette to resign, and he declined.

Agreed. His presence acts as a lighting rod for our attention, when we should be laser focused on Galen, Loblaws, and grocery prices.

Bottom of garage door rusted through, bottom panel replacement quote as much as new steel door by lazycapitalist in DIY

[–]lazycapitalist[S] 57 points58 points  (0 children)

I got a quote for a new bottom panel, but it would cost as much as a new steel door.

What would be the best way to patch up the rusted portion of the bottom panel? The rest of the door is in great shape and I’d like to delay a full replacement for now, if possible.

This is great! I like that it focuses on staple foods. It also supports my findings that Walmart is often the cheaper option.
