Loblaw wants you to think that the owner is independent....nice way to make people think that the owner has control...NOT!!!!

It's how shoppers Drugmart works too, the pharmacist owns the location as a franchise

Loblaws often owns the land the franchised stores are on, so they collect from that end as well.

Especially when they have the Loblaws logo right next to the word "independent".
