"It is extremely unlikely this boycott will have any meaningful effect. People need groceries: Canadians on a tighter budget shop where they can afford, and Canadians with more money shop where it is convenient. Almost everyone will continue their current shopping habits out of convenience. Certainly, the novelty of the boycott will wear off quickly."
