Femtosecond posted:Tbh BC is so much in the iron grip of Pattison Foods that if we had more Loblaws it would actually increase competition substantially (except that it doesn't seem to matter). Wait the billboard Pattison? What the gently caress? This country really is owned by like 5 noble families. Can’t wait until the Irvings make me pay for daily oxygen rations.

On researching brands I'm annoyed to find out that Thrifty's, which I thought was a quirky Vancouver Island chain, was acquired by Sobeys a few years ago.

Jim Pattison owns like half of Vancouver and a chunk of BC politicians went to work for the Pattison group after leaving office. Yeah it's basically a noble family at this point.
