Edmontons city council votes to ban restrictive covenants by grocery chains, aiming to end grocery deserts and improve food access. Mayor Andrew Knack supports the move, advocating for changes to the Land Titles Act. The big three chains have agreed to drop the practice if others follow suit. Manitobas success with a similar law offers hope, with potential savings for consumers if competition increases.
