    I'd feel bad if I didn't pay 25$ for NyQuil the other day

    Remember: theft raises prices for us all. And theft reduction reduces prices for nobody.

    It’s a convenience store. I even hear they sell hard drugs in the back.

    The investigation, dubbed “Project Sommes”

    I don’t think those free French lessons at the station are being taken seriously…

    “Due to unforeseen circumstances beyond our control yadda yadda…”
    At least the police will look better for it. Next bust will be a higher dollar amount for less products recovered!

    The irony of this sentiment following a jab at Galen "evil sweater vest" Weston is truly hilarious.

    Yes, I value good over bad. Weird concept.

    I don’t want to live in a community that accepts or promotes theft, especially organized crime theft. Weird I guess

    You’ll pardon me if I don’t consider theft from a multibillion dollar corporation to be “bad”.
    But I suppose they should be thankful they have Javerts such as yourself to stick up for them.

    Lmao Redditors are a different breed.

    Yes, theft is bad - even if you don’t like the victim. Just unbelievable that this is controversial.

    I just don't believe someone stealing from a multibillion dollar corporation and someone stealing some random person on the street warrant nearly the same level of shame. We obviously don't agree on this, and that's life. But I'm not going to be losing sleep over a company taking this kind of loss, least of all Loblaws.

    Stealing means that real customers have to eat the missing revenue...

    I’m sorry do you think, are you actually fucking suggesting, Galen is an innocent and moral person? 😂
