However, one would think that, if all these grocery stores are making so much money, there would be an unholy competition to drop prices to get more customers into the store and get more market share. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8009582\" data-originallang=\"en\">I am wondering if the hon. member has thought about doing the deeper dive and going to the producers of the food. We have seen shrinkflation, and we have seen a lot of things happening a layer below the grocery stores. I am wondering if he has thoughts about that aspect.</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"8009581\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, tout d'abord, il est rafra\u00eechissant de voir quelqu'un prendre la parole pour parler du co\u00fbt de la vie et ne pas en rejeter tout le bl\u00e2me sur la tarification de la pollution. Cependant, on pourrait penser que si toutes ces \u00e9piceries faisaient autant d'argent, il y aurait une concurrence d\u00e9loyale pour faire baisser les prix afin d'attirer plus de clients et d'obtenir une plus grande part du march\u00e9. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8009582\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Je me demande si le d\u00e9put\u00e9 a song\u00e9 \u00e0 approfondir la question et \u00e0 s'adresser aux producteurs d'aliments. Certaines pratiques, qui ont cours \u00e0 des \u00e9tapes pr\u00e9c\u00e9dant l'arriv\u00e9e des aliments dans les \u00e9piceries, comme la r\u00e9duflation, ont \u00e9t\u00e9 observ\u00e9es. Je me demande si le d\u00e9put\u00e9 a quelque chose \u00e0 dire \u00e0 ce sujet. </p>"
