Crack down on shrinkflation
To: Industry Minister François-Philippe Champagne and Prime Minister Trudeau
Petition text: Stop grocery companies from hoodwinking shoppers about shrinkflation — ensure there are clear labelling requirements when grocery products shrink.
Why is this important?
Have you noticed the size of some of your groceries like dish soap, flour, or sugar shrinking, while the price stays the same?
It’s called “shrinkflation”. It happens when companies reduce the size of a product without changing the price, meaning we pay the same for less product — and they get to make more money.
Our federal government could crack down on this practice by requiring clear labelling when products shrink. Sign the petition now to demand the government cracks down on this dodgy practice.
