Which 3? Only Forrest Lawn as far as I know, which is also the only one in Alberta, possibly west of Manitoba to.
It is Sobeys' parent company (Empire)which bought Safeway, not Sobeys per say, more like the rich getting richer Things will likely carry on the way they for quite sometime (although I heard a rumor they ((Sobeys)) could only use the Safeway name untill the end of 2014). I believe the Franchised Sobeys stores are in the most trouble. Sobeys has been trying to get rid of the independent stores for the last few years now and could really due a number on them in terms of customer counts, sales and marketing by really pushing the Safeway's.
