Loblaws and Ketchup

Ah, the plot thickens!
It would appear according to emails the CBC got that the dumping of Frenchs was to help sell Loblaws own PC ketchup. It also turns out the PC ketchup uses California tomatoes but is made in Canada despite Loblaws initially saying it was a Canadian product,

I guess we should pay attention to what they Don't Say, rather then what they say?
I am slowly going blind reading the very small information on food packages, usually the country of origin.

Did you see a few years ago Anderson Cooper on CNN and their rice fields and the cancer and miscarriage rates of rice crop farmers etc? Omg! Was it coal factory run off ?? Fields were red and toxic so they should be wearing masks.
I still have flashbacks of that. Insanely dangerous, reckless and inhumane. Oh man now I'm going to go in search of this.
Here's a quick note on the cancer village and toxic rice fields.
