Lantsman’s tweet included a graphic featuring a photo of a perplexed woman looking at an empty grocery store shelf.
“Empty Canadian grocery store shelves could become a larger problem,” the graphic states.

“Our petition from Canadians demanding action in communities across the country continues to grow every hour,” Lantsman told PressProgress.
