Industry Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne says he’s ‘disappointed’ in the lack of transparency Canadian grocery store giants have offered so far when it comes to tackling food inflation. He’s sending a letter to Canada’s Commissioner of Competition to express his dissatisfaction.
Well, his first problem is thinking “food inflation” is a thing. There is no inflation, it’s all just unchecked corporate greed.
Want to fix the problem? Introduce a new tax that cleans house of all the money stolen by the corporations and put them back into education and health care.
That would just increase the price further as the corporations would shift the cost to the clients.
Want to solve it permanently? Crown corporation grocery stores.
