I found a version of this on Financial Post that linked the report, I think it's a little bit misleading.

Food Basics being so far down on the list was odd, turns out they were #3 in Ontario, but being branded Super C in Quebec (which was #2 on the National list) makes them two seperate stores. Not really fair. They also didn't include Giant Tiger at all in the report, who might not be a juggernaught in the space but have way more locations and a bigger national presence than T&T, Longos, Farm Boy or Adonis who were included, and it's not as if Basics has a meat counter or bakery either.

I hate Temu because the one time I tried to use it (was doing an ali order and wanted to compare), it told me I could get the item free if I downloaded the app and ordered it there.

That turned out to be a total lie, and instead some slot machine popped up and I was being pressured to like buy like 10 totally unrelated random things of literal junk quality (like cat toys and glitter markers and shit) within the next 2 minutes and I just gave up and went back to ali. I just wanted one thing, not do a TikTok haul video jeez

Imagine companies using YouTube videos to train their AI customer service reps. You call in, and for a while think you're having a conversation with a person, but weirdly every minute and a half or so it's just randomly peppered with that metal gear solid alert sound, the inevitable waowwww sound effect, Michael Scott and Dr. Evil soundboard clips, then when you start getting suspicious that it may not actually be a real human on the other line they randomly go on an ad read for hellofresh out of nowhere

The Turtle, also known as the Turtle Building or the Native American Center for the Living Arts, is a three-story building in Niagara Falls, New York. The building was opened in May 1981 as the headquarters for the Native American Center for the Living Arts, an organization dedicated to promoting Native American visual and performing arts. Its unique shape, with a geodesic dome roof "shell" and large porthole "eye" windows, invokes the Iroquois creation story of the earth forming on the back of a giant turtle. After closing in 1995 due to financial trouble, the building has remained vacant, with its future preservation and use in question.
