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.

And we see what happens with every other law that tries something similar. The law spends months or years in deliberation, and eventually when it passes it's not clear enough of what a 'grocer' is, or whether individually owned franchises count, etc.

That's why none of this shit ever amounts to anything but noise.
