THIS IS WHAT $108.00 WILL BUY YOU IN ATTAWPISKAT IN GROCERIES...

That should cost no more than $30, $40 tops.

But the fact is that it DOESN’T.

Food desert, anyone? I think I remember the news reporting that Attawapiskat is only accessible by ground via ice road. Which was not usable last winter because it was so warm, and hasn’t really hardened up enough yet this winter. so this stuff is probably being flown in or something.

(Maybe snowmobiles can do it, too, but I don’t know how much a snowmobile can really carry as I am a bad Canadian and have never ridden one ever.)
