    A smaller company ClaimSercure had been pulling this shit with Rexall. Is it time for unions to test Canada’s antitrust laws?

      I don’t know unions would have standing for a lawsuit - wouldn’t the lawsuit have to be filed by a competitor?

        I presume there would be an employer with unionized employees who uses Manulife as their insurance provider.

      Yes, I suppose we will. It’s pretty sad that this kind of thing isn’t already illegal.
