I'd like to hear him deliver a detailed analysis of how sky rocketing food prices has no bearing on Loblaws record setting corporate profits.

Tbh if he had to try anywhere near that hard to deflect, that would be an improvement in and of itself. As it is, the 2 major parties aren't gonna do shit about them even if they straight up said they're trying to maximise profits at the expense of the common Canadian.

Liberals and Cons are just 2 sides of the same shitty coin. Unfortunately a ton of Canadian's think voting for the NDP is "socialism" and it doesn't help that Singh doesn't seem to be particularly popular.

The unfortunate state of Canada really fucking sucks.
