With the Loblaw boycott underway in protest of rising grocery prices, some Canadians are looking for alternatives to shop.
Small grocers and co-op stores are among those people are turning to, either due to lower costs because of their business model or the closer connection between the store and the suppliers, meaning customers know exactly where the food is coming from.
As Sean Previl explains, the stores say they’re seeing a “lot of anger” against the “big box” stores like Loblaw, but it’s leading to them getting a boost and new customers to welcome.

Overpriced grocery store and I always know to stay away
We know it’s the government’s fault
Hopefully they can fix things. They have good products.
Done. The prices are ridiculous ! Profits over People is a losing game !
This is a liberal psyop push to blame Big grocers for the cost of living crisis. If you were smart you were already shopping at Co-ops and No Frills after Trudeau printed 40% of the money in total circulation from 2020-2021 that decimated how far your hard earned dollar goes
If it wasn’t for ?ctive unions, we’d still be working 80hrs/wk, kids would still be mining. Norm?lize worker co-ops and active unions. Democratize??the workplace?.???
That's funny. Loblaws Gardens was packed with people when I went at 4pm. Looks like Loblaws isn't hurting one bit.
How long can the boycott participants keep this up? The longer it goes the more financially painful it would be to Loblaws.
The government is doing a great job smoke screening this.
