Good for their fight against US mega-competition, but not a huge fan of the majority of options now controlled by basically 2 families. Less choice and competition is rarely a good thing.
All that's left is for Loblaws to buyout Pattison's Save-On-Foods and the entire market is either Sobeys or Loblaw
