“I think it’s a good idea.”

“I’m not sure it was necessary. I had planned to do everything yesterday. It would have given the employees a nice day off, but it makes other people happy.

“I think people are going to be happy to recharge, especially since probably people have lost a lot of food.”

Not all grocery stores are open this Sunday as some have not been able to replenish their stocks.

“We know that Good Friday and Easter Saturday are extremely busy days. We speak with our distributions and with our banner to see what can be delivered quickly. Of course, we focus on basic products, so we make sure they are available. We try to offer the best for the people who need it,” explains Stéphane Lacasse, Director of Government Public Affairs ADA

Before going to the grocery store near you, call to see if it is indeed open.
