I wish the co-op grocery stores were still around here. They got pushed out of the cities years ago.

Plenty in smaller communities around the province, but Loblaws' and Sobyes' ghetto brands are encroaching more and more.

What province? There are at least three very large co-op grocery stores in Saskatoon. One used to be a Safeway, but they were forced to sell when the Sobeys/Safeway merger happened. Can't speak for Regina, but I'm sure it's similar there too.

They made a resurgence in Winnipeg after the Sobeys/Safeway merger, when a bunch of Safeway locations were forced to be sold off.
