“Violent encounters at retail locations across the country have increased dramatically in recent years,” explained Loblaw Companies Ltd. in a statement to CTV News.
“By piloting body cameras, we continue to do what we can to protect our customers and team.”
The participating Calgary stores are the Real Canadian Superstore in the East Village on Sixth Avenue S.E., and the Shoppers Drug Mart next door.
Loblaws really doesn’t want my business. I stopped shopping there in May and haven’t had a need to go back. If they are going to treat customers like pre-criminals I don’t want to give them the time of day.
