He argued it’s easier for customers to “point fingers” at grocers like Loblaw than at other players in the supply chain or global factors leading to higher prices.

Given Loblaws has control over a lot of that supply chain and has record profits over the last few years, so...

No sure if this is a serious question, but .btw is not a TLD while .fyi is.

Yup, guess I was too tired to be commenting.

this is why people are very upset about immigration numbers.

What do Temporary Foreign Workers have to do with Immigration?

Thanks. I really appreciate the response, especially with the reference!

I thought the risk of developing polio wasn't to the person receiving the vaccine, but to other, unvaccinated people in an area with poor sanitation.

Whoa. Why are you being so aggressive?

I stated in my first comment that I'd searched in Ontario, so I was just clarifying that my search was province-wide. I found those prices all over the province, so I don't think it's "regionally specific." (unless you were trying to convey regions of Canada?)

I don't know where you're from, and couldn't guess it from a quick search of your comment history.

EDIT: I'm not trying to say, "Toronto is the centre of the universe," or anything like that. I'm just trying to give context to my statements.

I just search autotrader for all of Ontario. You can find even cheaper ones below $10K, but they're old models and probably have very limited range. However, as a second vehicle for around town trips (with daily at home charging), they'd be a pretty good option.

So far, SpaceX has been run with much less Musk involvement. That could change on a whim, but so far it seems to be a pretty well run government-supplier under Gwynne Shotwell.

There are very few used cars for <$7,500 that aren't "As-Is" or should be labelled as such. I know the used ICE market has also softened a bit, but not that much.

When we were looking, I was considering a beater since our last car was a '05 Civic I bought with 120K km from a used car dealer for $5K (plus snow tires & rims). Before it was totaled, with an extra 180K km and over a decade of wear, it was worth more than that. EV prices are insane, but ALL car prices are insane.
