One thing no on has mentioned yet is this must really suck for the stores. Not so much for the big places like co-op, safeway etc.. as it will be a small hit to the %profit but for a place like shoppers I'd imagine smokes are a larger %. Macs and 7/11 must be loving the changes, they are pretty much exclusive sellers of smokes now, their sales will probably double.
Nothing stopping Shoppers from getting out of the pharmacy business and selling smokes instead.
