Most of their products were just not that good, or just didn’t hold up to modern standards. For this faux meat category, it feels like they were competitive before 2020, but since then, there are way better products from other brands with less processed, better ingredients like Big Mountain Foods, and Yves stuff just doesn’t even come close to them IMHO.

The upside here is that a lot of precious shelf space in the vegan meat/cheese section is going to open up for these other Canadian brands to fill. Here’s hoping that it gets filled with better quality products from Canadian companies.

That’s a terrible way to do it because you and me and 99.999% of the population are not qualified to make the decision about that and understand the very difficult but ethical rationale behind it.

Thanks for confirming you’re arguing in bad faith.

How is that fear unfounded when a politician can snap their fingers and target your research with this populist bullshit? There already is a process to ensure this research is justified. We shouldn’t allow political interference in science. It sets a horrible precedent and opens the door for worse. Ford’s actions undermine public trust in science, which is terrible (look south of the border).

That’s CRTC logic!

I agree with the first part, but paying for the commute doesn’t make sense because YOU choose where you live. Your employer doesn’t get a say at all in where you live. It’s not part of the job. Also, if employers were paying for your commute, good luck getting a job if you live in the suburbs and have to commute, because now you’re more expensive to hire than people who live closer.
