The class-action case was brought against a group of companies that includes Loblaw and the Weston companies, Metro, Walmart Canada, Giant Tiger, and Sobeys and its owner, Empire Co. Ltd
Sorry, WHAT?! Weston also owns Sobeys and Walmart?! BREAKUP THIS MONOPOLY!!
Edit: Can anyone confirm if this is accurate? I couldn’t confirm it.
You’re misreading that comma. It is listing companies the suit is against. “Loblaw and the Weston companies” is one list item, “Walmart Canada” is another, etc.

Oh thank you both! I am SO glad I misread that 😊. My familiarity with Oxford commas let me down here 😁
This is a case of Fun With Commas - Sobeys is owned by a different obscene conglomerate, Empire Company.
Metro, Walmart, Giant Tiger, and Empire are the co-conspirators along with the Weston companies.
Jeazus. EMPIRE company. A little on the nose, no?
