The notwithstanding clause... a compromise that for the most part yielded greater protections for individuals. Right up until assholes started applying it on a regular basis. How to organize protests around that use remains unclear. But I wont visit PQ or AB any more. I wouldn't like either place

Everyone saying "Loblaws should pay" miss the point entirely. Corporate fines are a trivial cost of doing business, and still cheaper than doing what's right. IF fact, you can be sure that Loblaws profited greatly from this. End corporate citizenship, and make executives face consequences
