Hungry kids experience 27% higher anxiety levels, they miss more school, and they disrupt their class more often. A well-fed child will do better and contribute to a better Canada, so helping our children live life well affects us all. We can be proud that President’s Choice Children’s Charity has become Canada’s largest charitable provider of school meals programs. We can also do more.

Todd Garber

Serving his country is in Todd Garber’s blood. When Todd, who’s the Meat Manager at an Atlantic Superstore® store in Dartmouth, NS, joined Canada’s Reserve Force more than two decades ago, he was following in the footsteps of his father, a guardsman, and especially his grandfather, an army colonel.

Rayelyn Izzo

Rayelyn Izzo, a Beauty Specialist at a Shoppers Drug Mart® store in Calgary, AB has been waiting for the Beauty NOW™ platform for years. “The old system was archaic,” she says. “We’d have to wait and wait and we really need to be able to communicate with our clients on a faster technology platform. It’s beauty at our fingertips.”

Jamie Gallant

One of the coolest moments in Jamie Gallant’s career happened when she was in her 20s, studying computer science at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario. She was researching how to make hearing aids more directional, so they could better tune out background noise.

Bananas in a store

Bananas have a waste problem. Every week, Loblaw receives hundreds of pallets full of the fruit, which arrive at our distribution centers with a protective plastic strip on the corners that can’t be recycled, so instead, it ends up in the trash. But that’s about to change. 

An “ap-peeling” way to reduce plastic waste

Brian stands in front of a garden smiling. 

Brian Rickert

Brian Rickert grew up surrounded by traditional masculinity. For years, he played competitive hockey, and in high school, he joined multiple sports teams. But during his teen years, he started to feel like he wasn’t being his authentic self—he was trying to fit a mold of who he thought he should be.

Diversity and inclusion

Brian is out, confident and proud

Socks. Old t-shirts. Fabric scraps. These are all items that some Canadians have said they’ve used as alternatives to pads or tampons when faced with the impossible choice between buying a period product or an essential item on their grocery list. It’s a situation known as “period poverty.”

Caylyn Booth

If you’re struggling with your mental health, Caylyn Booth wants to let you know that you’re not alone.
“Reaching out for help is not a weakness,” says Caylyn, a Senior Human Resources Business Partner at Loblaw. “It’s one of the hardest things to do—it takes so much courage and strength to put your hand up and say, ‘I can't do this by myself.’ I wish someone had told me that.”

Caylyn speaks up

Nina Jane Trudeau grew up hearing her grandparents speak Ojibwe, or Anishinaabemowin. She’d serve them tea, then sit in the living room and listen to them talk and laugh. “I didn’t really know what they were saying, but the sound of it made me extremely happy,” says Nina, a member of Wiikwemkoong First Nation and a part-time cashier at Valu-mart® on Manitoulin Island in Ontario.

As many parts of Canada battle a fourth wave of COVID-19, it’s important that we do everything we can to protect ourselves and our most vulnerable – and that means getting your flu shot AND the COVID-19 vaccine. The two-combined give you your best shot at a safer fall and winter.

Environment 

After 40 years on the road with the sound of a motor as his almost constant companion, getting used to the quiet of an electric truck has been the biggest adjustment for Loblaw driver Richard MacDonald. “Most of the time, the only thing you can hear is the hum of the tires.”

An international swimming and skiing champion works at Peter’s Your Independent Grocer™ (YIG) in Kelowna, B.C.—when she’s not in the pool, hitting the gym, or crushing at-home workouts, that is. Over the last 11 years, Kelsey Wyse has won three gold medals in swimming at the Special Olympics World Games in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, one gold and two silver in Los Angeles, and two silver medals for alpine skiing in Idaho.

Emily smiles as she stands outside on the grass holding laptops in her hands

Emily McCreery

Seventeen-year-old Emily McCreery knows the challenge many students faced when schools shut down due to COVID-19 and classes moved online. “It was hard to do schoolwork via Zoom,” says the Regina, SK resident, who is entering grade 12 this fall and works part-time as a cashier at Shoppers Drug Mart®. But Emily realized that for students who don’t have access to reliable technology at home, in particular laptops, it was even harder.

Tadeu and Luca

When Tadeu Granemann finally stepped off the plane and onto Canadian soil at the end of 2020, it was the culmination of more than a year’s worth of planning, dreaming and—he admits—feeling anxious. Tadeu was moving to Canada to begin his new job as a Senior Site Reliability Engineer at Loblaw Digital, more than a year after he had been offered the job.

Small things can lead to big changes – just ask David Keefe, Transport Maintenance Supervisor at our Lakeside Distribution Centre (DC) in Halifax, Nova Scotia. David and his wife, a teacher at Beechville Lakeside Timberlea Senior Elementary School (BLT for short), were having dinner when she mentioned Tracey Quinn, the school’s vice principal, was going shopping. “Shopping for what?” David asked.

Bryce stands in front of the pharmacy counter at Shoppers Drug Mart smiling

Bryce Barry

Pharmacists save lives – just ask Bryce Barry, a pharmacist at Shoppers Drug Mart® in Park Place Mall in Lethbridge, Alta. In May, a one-year-old boy was in his Lethbridge backyard with his mother when he ate some raccoon feces out of a flowerpot. His parents did some online research and learned raccoon poop often contains a roundworm that can cause neurological disease or death. Drug intervention within 72 hours is critical.

Kara Stokes

These days in Kamloops, the temperature hovers in the mid-30s, the air is smoky, and sometimes, ash rains from the sky. Much of British Columbia is on fire this summer—the province has seen 1,257 wildfires since the season began. Kamloops, in B.C.’s central interior, has been hit particularly hard.

Indigenous orange 

We are a proud Canadian company, and we understand and acknowledge this country’s past and ongoing challenges, and our relationship with the Indigenous peoples who called Canada home long before us. The confirmation of children who were taken from their families and lost their lives in the residential school system, and stories told by survivors, leaves us with heavy hearts and a greater urgency to strengthen our commitment to truth and reconciliation.

Jenna wears a face mask while holding a needle used for vaccination shots

Jenna Swart

Jenna Swart, a pharmacist at the Atlantic Superstore® pharmacy in Summerside, Prince Edward Island, was just doing her job. But for a mother and her autistic son, Jenna was the difference between him getting vaccinated against COVID-19 or not.

Veneise smiles as she stands in front of the Yawdi’s display while holding two jars of pepper jelly and jerk marinade in her hands

Veneise George 

Back in 2015, Veneise George was looking for a way to spend more time with her kids. The busy mom worked full-time as a youth manager at a Toronto not-for-profit and volunteered in her community, so by the time she got home she usually had to choose between prepping dinner and hanging out with her children.

Divina stands in front of the meat counter inside a store wearing a mask

Divina Dulay 

In 1994, not long after she arrived in Canada from the Philippines, Divina Dulay heard about a position as a part-time meat clerk at Loblaws®, but she wasn’t sure if it was right for her. “Growing up, I thought butchering and cutting meat was a job that strong men did, like I saw in markets and stores,” she says. But after receiving training from more senior meat-cutters, she realized it wasn’t hard – actually, it was kind of… awesome! 

Divina makes the cut

Kehmal Mossap

When customers arrive at the Loblaws® location on The Kingsway in Etobicoke, Ont., they never know what song Kehmal Mossap will be singing. Sometimes it’s gospel, sometimes it’s soca, sometimes it’s old-school R&B, like “Celebration” or “We Are Family.” But whatever the tune, customers know Kehmal, a security guard at the store who deejays on the side, will bring a dose of positivity to their grocery-shopping experience.

Peter Boyd

Peter Boyd has a lot of stories to share — the kinds of stories that illustrate how human connection, empathy and open-mindedness truly have the power to change lives. For the past six years, the owner of Peter’s Your Independent Grocer™ (YIG) in Kelowna, B.C., where he’s lived since 1989, has helped new Canadians land their first job in this country.

Lynda stands on the second level of her store with her hands together, smiling into the camera

Lynda Sauve

Lynda Sauve, HMR Manager at Zehrs® in Stratford, Ontario has always had a passion for learning new things and being involved in her store. In fact, in her almost 20 years with the business, her natural sense of curiosity has opened many doors for her and led to roles of increasing responsibility. Yet something held her back from putting up her hand to be an Assistant Store Manager (ASM).

Pascal Niccoli

Last summer, Pascal Niccoli, Associate at a Shoppers Drug Mart® location in Waterloo, Ont., started noticing a concerning shift among his customers, patients and store team: anxiety and stress were on the rise, mental wellbeing was declining, and he was seeing a sharp increase in demand for medications to treat anxiety, depression and other psychiatric disorders. So, Pascal started a conversation that has since snowballed into a half-million-dollar donation to the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA).

When Catherine Nolin attended safe-space training run by Laurentian University a couple of years ago, there was one big takeaway for her: “We can make little changes in the way we practice our everyday habits and these changes can have a big impact on someone’s life.”

Franklyn McFadden

Even from behind his mask Franklyn McFadden’s smile is hard to miss; It stretches from ear to ear and is often accompanied by his affable laugh. It’s this energy that earned him a recognition award for great customer service soon after joining a Real Canadian Superstore® in Scarborough, Ont., last November.

Varun and Rupali 

Just two months after Varun and Rupali Kapoor immigrated to Canada from India, the COVID-19 pandemic hit their new country. And five months after that, in August 2020, they became essential workers, getting part-time jobs as cashiers at a Loblaws® location in downtown Toronto.

When Nico Diard, Director, Product Development, describes a flavour as a “treasure” and his “new passion,” it’s a good sign there’s something to be excited about—and that’s exactly how he describes yuzu, one of the hero flavours of this year’s PC® Insiders Report™ Summer Edition.

Mihi Tillakaratne

In 2014, Mihiri Tillakaratne’s family doctor sent her for an MRI. She’d been having some issues with her vision and mobility, but none of the medical professionals she’d seen had been able to figure out why. When the MRI results came back, Mihiri—who goes by Mihi—learned she had multiple sclerosis (MS), a chronic disease that affects the nervous system. At the age of 36, she finally understood what had been happening to her.

Supporting the black community

It has been one year since the world witnessed the murder of George Floyd and, like many, we were relieved to see accountability and justice served. Unfortunately, that is often not the case, and Black lives continue to be impacted. Last year, Galen made a promise that as a company we would continue to help create systemic change. We’ve been listening. We’ve been learning – and unlearning. And we’ve been taking action. 

We’re still standing with the Black community

We’re in for another COVID summer, but that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy it to the best of our ability. That’s the driving force behind the latest PC® Insiders Report™ Summer Edition, made up of hundreds of products, from delicious eats to grilling accessories to colourful drinkware.
