I appreciate that. Thank you very much.
You spoke about Surrey, and you testified earlier that you didn't hear from the British Columbia government. This is absolutely and clearly provincial jurisdiction, so there's a question of overstepping a legislative purpose.
What other provinces did you consult with? Do you know of other provinces that are complying or not complying with this notion?
In Alberta, this has been a practice for a very long time in small and large grocery stores all across the province, in my experience. I have not been to every grocery store in the province, but there's a market imperative to do this for retailers themselves. Why does the government have to legislate this?
