Episode Details

BC Green Party Leader Emily Lowan is among those calling for a boycott of Save-On-Foods and other Pattison companies over a possible U.S. real estate deal with ICE. Word of a boycott is spreading on social media after stories surfaced on the weekend reporting a Pattison-owned real estate company may sell a warehouse in Virginia to Immigration and Customs Enforcement. ICE says it hopes to use that warehouse as a processing facility for its operations. Lowan’s boycott call is mixed with an unrelated statement about food prices including those at other Canadian grocery chains.
