CBC's Marketplace rounds up the consumer and health news you need from the week.Superstore customer Iris Griffin filed a complaint with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency after she discovered the ground beef she bought at a Superstore in Winnipeg was underweight. The beef she's holding is not the product involved in the complaint.
"When you're seeing that they're not weighing meat product properly … there's an extra hit there that the consumer is taking," said Iris Griffin, a shopper who blew the whistle on the 80-store Loblaw case. "I was angry," said Griffin, who calculated she'd been overcharged $1.27 on the $17.35 price tag. "I'm being charged for this piece of plastic at the price of the ground beef."
Justice Peter Edelmann allowed the certification of the class for the alleged breaches of privacy in a decision posted online Wednesday, but he dismissed claims that Home Depot violated other duties and contractual obligations. The decision says the claim involves more than six million emails and corresponding data shared with Meta over several years. The judge said the alternative to a class-action lawsuit would be hundreds of thousands of individual claims "which are simply not feasible."
Fifteen years and three billion users later, Facebook's parent company Meta has a new vision: characters powered by artificial intelligence existing alongside actual friends and family. Some experts caution that this could mark the end of social media as we know it.
