      Singh wants price controls on food. Mamdani wants publicly-owned grocery stores. They are not the same.

        I want a publicly owned version of everything. Utilities, internet, phone, school, housing, food, etc etc. We can do capitalism if we have to, but make corporations compete with an entity with a comparable distribution network whose main goal isn’t lining their pockets.

        Look at Saskatchewan. Lowest cell prices in the country because they have to compete with SaskTel, yet the big 3 still do fine. It works.
