BC should should compete with the other grocery chains to lower their prices. The first stores should be set up in First Nations communities as they often have the most expensive food.

Its tough out here on Vancouver Island seeing those high totals.

Gee, it's almost like it was a bad idea to let Loblaws buy out most of the competition, have Walmart undercut them at razor or losing margins until they left, and then be stuck with few choices and even less good ones...
