I think the reality is that in that position the retailer is the point of sale. They're getting their payment at the cashier. I don't see how that would put them in a position to make a claim on a restaurant, a wholesaler, a job or by any means. There could be certain situations in which a retailer could become a supplier. If a large retail distribution centre is providing an independent retailer with vegetables, they most definitely could become a supplier—rightfully so, but those situations are probably very few and far between.
In reality, it is our expectation, as Fruit and Vegetable Growers of Canada, that all produce sellers along the supply chain should be protected under this legislation. If they happen to be a supplier, they should be protected—and rightfully so.
