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

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

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.

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