    If we didn't do mass immigration they would be hurting. Instead we flooded them with cheap labor while increasing demand, so the high interest rates barely did anything to them.

    Do we blame them or the Feds though?

    This makes absolutely no sense. Actually, it appears you are trying to mask far-right extremism in a seemingly innocuous post.

    I blame you for meaningless obfuscation.

        I personally didn't see any price decreases when the carbon tax was removed so I wouldn't be surprised.

          Just to put this in perspective, Loblaws profits are going up.

          Just a moment...

          What are they doing with this profit? Not helping Canadian farmers and producers. that is for sure.

          "The company announced a 10% increase in dividends and repurchased $457 million in shares."

          They are buying back their own shares. Potential investment money gone to waste.

          Buying up their own shares make the share value go up, less shares to buy and the such. This is awesome form investors and shareholders.

          Fuck the customers

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

              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.

                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!"

                  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?

                    You assume wrong. Their profit margins have gone up. They are now making huge profits.

                    Can you show where you're getting the information that margins have gone up? Only references to margins there indicate that they've been stable

                      The devil is in the details. Read what the report does NOT say. If dividends increase, profit has gone up. The profit goes up, because the margins have gone up. Volume has not increased as much as the profit..

                      'Absolute sales grew 4%', but 'Adjusted EPS grew by 9.3%'. The earnings per share (profit) grew twice the rate of absolute sales.
