In all seriousness, though, a crown corp grocery makes a certain kind of sense if the private chains are driven by profit to the detriment of a large portion of the public.
Saskatchewan having being run by conservative dolts for a number of years, at least we’ve been able to keep our crown corporations. We enjoy some of the lowest prices in the country for mobile plans and auto insurance. Power and natural gas are quite reasonable as well.
Whoda thunk that when you remove the drive for profit, a business can be both sustainable and beneficial to the people, in that they are both customers and owners.
We keep flip flopping between two parties that believe opposite things when it comes to how a country should be managed and that’s what happens in most provinces too 🤷

Don’t most crown corporations even turn a profit anyways? Just not the obscene profit private companies want
And that profit goes into the government coffers which means lower income taxes and the crown corporation becomes a type of tax based on usage.
Yep. Why Canada sold CN Rail to the south of the border is fucking beyond my comprehension

I wouldn’t say they believe opposite things; we keep flip-flopping between a pro-business party and an extremely pro-business party
