You know what stops this? More competition.
Does Carney have opinions on pesky domestic issues?
And of course, if fuel prices go down, so will everything else instantly–right?

if your elbows get high enough in the air prices will come down
People will make this about Carney even though it’s entirely about Trump and his war that nobody but Israel asked for.
You will not find a separate “new fuel surcharge on groceries” anywhere on your grocery bill. The whole article can be reduced to “High fuel prices cause the price of other things (that require shipping) to go up”. This really should be self-evident. The phrasing of the headline and focus on Groceries is because it makes everyone mad so we’ll click on it because we hate grocery stores already.
Companies passing on costs to consumers.. that’s unheard of
Corporate will not lose profit or bonuses for the CEO / c-suite
