Feeding My Family's call for boycott prompts strong reaction
Wednesday, January 21, 2015
CBC NEWS: On Monday, food security group Feeding My Family proposed a one-day boycott of all North West Company stores across the North, suggesting the company isn't passing on federal food subsidies to consumers.
The suggestion caused quite a stir, on all sides of the argument.
Many people - particularly those in the Feeding My Family Facebook group - supported the idea of a January 31 boycott wholeheartedly. Others, though, questioned whether the North West Company was really the one to blame.
