Mom of two children and four budgies (so my hands and my hair are full)

Founder of the LoblawsIsOutOfControl movement, boycotting Loblaw and their affiliate stores alongside some amazing organizers.

Ask me about ramen. Or crocheting.
Funny how everyone but Gretsky is addressing him proudly supporting Trump, yknow, the biggest threat to our country that we’ve ever seen? Who could’ve imagined we’d be mad?

Also no, supporting MAGA directly means that you don’t in fact respect my beliefs.

Janet, Wayne, and Bobby Orr can all go fuck themselves.

Well this is gross.

Loblaw ready to enable retailers to gouge us faster given the “unique” situation of the tariff threat. 🫠

Ontario friends, today is the day! If you haven’t done so already, get out to vote.

It took 30 seconds out of my day (plus a 5 min walk there/back).

Great news, boycotters. Loblaw reported Q4 financials today. Growth is slowing, and they’re missing targets. Down $78 million in profits compared to this quarter last year. Boycott forever. #loblawsisoutofcontrol #groceryrevolution vm.tiktok.com/ZMkvKELtW/

There are currently protests breaking out in every state.

You probably won't see much about it in the media, though.

Ontarians make sure you are registered to vote. It takes 2 minutes. We need real leaders who care about affordability, and not wasting $3B on buying votes.

Hey @thebachelorbowl.bsky.social I like rebranding UBI this way. How about you 😂

Amazon is closing all of their warehouses in Quebec, because one unionized.

This fight isn't left vs. right, this is top vs. bottom.

One side will do everything in their power to crush you.

The other side will stand shoulder-to-shoulder.

Pick your side.

"Lack of income is the primary driver of homelessness in this province... A single person on ODSP might spend as much as 90% of their income on rent."

Basic income saves lives and money.

Ontario friends! Please consider supporting the amazing initiative started by @megankee.bsky.social called Regift Ontario, encouraging folks to donate their $200 rebate cheques. Food banks need our support now more than ever!

Empire agrees to remove a property control that blocked grocery competition in Crowsnest Pass. More competition = lower prices & better options for residents. Investigations into Loblaw & Empire's use of property controls continue. #LoblawsIsOutOfControl #FairGroceries #CDNpoli #groceryrevolution

Who is Verillium Health Care, and why is Loblaw selling them 42 Wellwise locations? A lesser-known player in healthcare, Verillium focuses on acquisitions and efficiency. Is this Loblaw streamlining—or is the #Loblawsisoutofcontrol boycott making waves? Let's keep the pressure on!

Capitalism is collaboration at the top and ruthless “free market competition” for the rest of us.

It is privatizing gains and socializing losses.

It is bailouts for the ultra wealthy, and austerity for the rest of us.

The change in demeanour and body language once confronted on his salary is astounding here. Shoutout to Dave Gray-Donald on X for this absolutely golden encounter with Per Bank, CEO of Loblaw.

Loblaw creates a "Patient Care and Quality Committee" for its healthcare services like Shoppers Drug Mart. Sounds good, but should corporations overseeing public health raise concerns? Profit motives in healthcare don't always align with patient care. What do you think? #HealthCare #boycottloblaws

Loblaw’s latest financial moves

Redeeming $225M in preferred shares (Jan 2025).
Issuing $400M in bonds (Dec 2029 maturity, 3.564%).
Cost-cutting or riskier debt shift? Consumers still face high prices, while profits soar.
