Executives at major food companies say they haven’t seen an impact from the boycott, with one supplier noting higher than normal sales so far this month.

    Good for them. I don’t care what their suppliers claim or what roblaws claims. They don’t exist to me and that’s all that matters.

      I feel this way with walmart. Im not boycotting its just an unnacceptable place for me to shop. Literally would have to be my only option for a necessity to do it.

      Just to be clear, I’m not suggesting that anyone stop boycotting them, I’m just saying that’s probably the reason it hasn’t effected them that much

        Because boycotts take time to affect profits, and since this only started less than 2 weeks ago it’s not surprising the company is touting a “win”.

        Wait a couple of months and I guarantee you we’ll see Roblaw’s bitching about about how ‘fake news’ is hitting their bottom line … because they would never lie to us about their non price-gouging profits. /s
