And a coffee shop which is widely loved but functionally is just a powerless figurehead.
What about Timmy’s? I’m in Toronto and I think there is one on every block.
In Australia it’s 2 supermarkets and 4 banks.
Really crazy how Irving’s don’t get a mention.
Closest thing Canada has to royal family. They own the east coast.
I grew up in Ontario. Never heard of them. Then I moved out east and holy fuck it was crazy how I never heard of this family. They own everything in the maritimes. Them and the McCain’s(french fry McCain’s).
It’s to the point that the Maritimes feel like a factory town and most of Canada never heard of them. Might have something to do with how they own all media out there too.
Not Canadian… yet. How close I am to citizenship?

There are actually three major telecom companies making up 85%+ of the market share: Bell, Rogers, and Telus. Don’t be fooled by names like Virgin, Fido, and Koodo, as those are just the “lite” subsidiaries of the three major companies respectively.
For supermarkets there is Loblaws, as you said. But, it’s not like Sobeys and Metro are much better, they just keep their robber-baron executives better hidden.
