Hungry Sean Penn loads up at insubordinate Winnipeg supermarket on Canada Day 

A nearby staple chain that mocked the laws expecting them to remain shut on statutory occasions was visited by two eminent visitors on Canada Day – one of whom was more welcome than the other.

Nourishment Fare's Ramsey Zeid disclosed to Global News that his Portage Avenue area was quickly visited by agents of the Manitoba Labor Board after opening its entryways Monday.

The store's chief, he stated, was advised he expected to hand over close to home insights regarding all representatives working that day, or face a $1,000 per-individual fine, over a bigger fine for opening on the occasion.

Sustenance Fare, which confronted comparable fines for resisting the laws on Good Friday recently, would not surrender the data.

Zeid said the organization is as yet hanging tight for a court date for that previous infringement, and that he completely expects a subsequent summons is imminent.

The second remarkable guest was a Hollywood entertainer recording in Winnipeg, who was simply searching for certain food supplies and was ignorant of the Canada Day opening boycott.

"At the Maryland area, Sean Penn really came in and completed a huge shop," said Zeid. "We had a little discussion with him and he was really stunned that it was so elusive a supermarket that was open.

"He stated, 'I've been all over, and it's never been this elusive a supermarket that was really open on a vacation.

"He was exceptionally rational. He had one other individual with him, he conversed with numerous clients, he took some photographs… he was an extremely pleasant person."

Zeid said Food Fare will keep on challenging the guidelines, in spite of punishments, as a result of the standard of the dissent.

He said he doesn't comprehend why club can remain open 24 hours every day, why cannabis stores appear to have the option to set their very own hours, and why Liquor Marts can remain open during occasions… yet a market giving necessities needs to keep its entryways shut.
