For some, such as Connor Greenwell, it amounts to thousands
of dollars.
She got $15,000, invested it in a Registered Retirement
Savings Plan, then got his with a demand that she give back $6,262.50.
It’s reminiscent of Loblaws’ heavy-handed tactics last year

Farmers had little choice but to swallow the decreases
because they need Loblaws, which is Canada’s largest supermarket business, as
customers.
Somebody ought to convince these supermarket giants that these heavy-handed tactics negate tens of millions they spend on advertising, public relations and lobbying.
