Industry Minister François-Philippe Champagne says he wishes Canadian grocers would be more forthcoming with the public about their plans to stabilize prices.

Earlier this month, Champagne announced that major Canadian grocers—Loblaw, Metro, Empire, Walmart and Costco—submitted initial plans to the federal government for how they will stabilize prices in the face of high inflation.
