This is what's known in the privatization literature as a the "bonsai approach." You deprive public stores of new locations in growing markets, prevent them from making improvements (walk-in fridges, snack and soft drink sales, decor) and claim its a level-playing field 1/2

BOTH labour and profit shares rose during the initial lockdowns due to huge government subsidies. But labour's share has been more-than-fully clawed back, while the profit share remains elevated. This is profit-price inflation, not wage-price inflation. #canlab /3

Looking forward to this #JustTransition event in #Regina this weekend! I'll be speaking about my @ccpa/@acwyorku research on the employment impacts of the shift away from fossil fuels. Spoiler: decarbonizing the economy will create more jobs than it destroys.
