Customers no longer supporting Community Natural Foods

Yay for human rights lawsuits

Community has such a beautiful selection of immune enhancing products i dont understand why they are airing on the side of medical extremes. Doctors and scientists of many stripes have called out these types of policies for their lack of scientific rigor and albertas own occupational safety mask expert says plainly they dont work for this virus and create breathing resistance....if real open debate were permitted things could shift but since there is so much political insanity wrapped up in this work and unfortantely community has chosen not to stand for balance and reasonability, rather questionable policies. It is sad becuase it has been a staple for many of us through the years.

Communism is not acceptable in Canada

Disappointed that your business is not supporting mask exemptions, not only violating patrons rights but putting their health at risk while taking no responsibility for doing so. Shame on you!

It is with great regret that I'll be withholding my 30 year support of Community Natural Foods when this illegal suspension of service is imposed - to those either: -- with health restrictions (exempt from wearing a mask) - or with political beliefs in our sovereign rights to choose, - and those who feel the responsibility to stand up against Illegal, unjust tyranny by those trying to make our health worse, not better by these restrictions. I pray that the management will have reason soon to retract this ordinance and support their patrons, not their unjust management!

I am so sad and disappointed. This was one of my favourite stores in all of Calgary. When I lived in Fort McMurray and came to Calgary to visit family or on a work trip, I ALWAYS came to Community for the BEST EVER buffet lunch. It felt like home in your store. But, I cannot support a store that supports an agenda of lies and gaslighting and not the community it serves. Shame on you.

Stop the nonsense, live free to make your own choices

A long time patron of Community and a senior with a health condition for which I have a mask exemption, I am leaving as a customer because of your unlawful ruling around masks. Medical experts, including Dr Fauci have stated asymptomatic transmission if covid is extremely rare. I am thoroughly disappointed that a store that espouses health would take such a position. You're losing a lot of business. My family and I thank you for the long and fruitful run we've had as patrons.

You need to shake your heads, I will not come back till u do.

So much for the "community" in Community Foods.

What a ridiculous decision you’ve made ‘Community’ ‘Natural’ Foods. I guess your company name has no meaning and no value behind it, but I guess that’s what happens when you sell out to a big corporation like CO-OP. To a business that thinks they are above the law of the charter of rights, you have lost my business forever. I will never shop here again, and you can expect many mounting lawsuits to follow. And we will win because you are breaking the law by denying people service who have a mask exemption.

I don’t wear a mask ever. I certainly will not support businesses that don’t respect my choice. See ya

I have been a Community customer since the days when your original premises were close to the now defunct light shop at the corner of 14 th St. I put up with limp carrots and wilted lettuce because I believed in you and I waited it out until you sorted out your refrigeration problems which took a few years. But I can't support you any more because of your absurd regulations that require muzzling of everyone, regardless of their medical or physical limitations, or age.

Very sad that the government itself doesn't seem to care that exemptions always exist.

Forcing masks or shields on people is unconstitutional and is promoting fascism. I do not support Community Natural Foods for this reason.

This is getting ridiculous.

I really expected more from a store that understands that this "virus" does not expose any great risk to people who take care of themselves (namely, eating organic food and taking vitamin D, etc.). My brother has a lung issue and cannot wear a mask, I can't believe that you are turning your back on him and others like him. I will be boycotting until you change your policies.

Very disappointed and shocked by Community foods choices.

I've been a customer for over a decade. An institution in a community, like CNF is in Calgary, has a lot of power. With great power, comes great responsibility. So disappointed.

I told you this was a bad idea. Honor people on disability, you better talk to your lawyers because this is against our Constitutional Rights and is going to cost you alot!!!! Change your decision
