Store employee just gonna go ahead and straighten items on shelf close to where Indigenous person shopping

November 29, 2024

A Winnipeg, Man. store employee is just gonna ahead and straighten some items on a shelf near where an Indigenous person is shopping.

“Yeah, no, it’s just an incredible coincidence that I have to check these items right by where that Indigenous person is browsing,” the store employee told reporters.

“And also that shelf right by where they are moving to now.” 

The store employee, who’s never gone ahead and straightened items on a shelf by white shoppers, also sidled up beside another Indigenous customer and accusingly asked if they could help them.
