    I’m curious. Can I made a bunch of bread, sit just off NoFrills property, and gift a loaf to everyone who agrees not to buy bread from the store.

      The penalty for illegal price fixing food like Weston’s Bread, should be nationalization into the public fold.

      The Weston Bakery Empire and Galen’s yacht aptly named “Bread” should be public property.

      Technically yes, but I’m sure the cops would show up and charge you with mischief or something. Remember, the cops are here to protect the status quo, not to protect you.

        They’re here to advance the interests of the state. Which is usually the status quo, but when it’s suddenly not, shit happens.
