Buried beneath the weight of all the news over Karlheinz Schreiber’s tedious performance before the House of Commons Ethics Committee was the announcement of another probe by Parliament into allegations of price fixing by Canada’s largest chocolate making companies. It’s been reported that the Canadian divisions of Nestle, Cadbury, Hershey and Mars are under investigation by regulators over alleged price fixing of chocolate bars. The Competition Bureau of Canada has requested that the companies hand over documents related to their pricing arrangements. It is understood that no charges have yet been made and that there is no solid evidence of any wrongdoing. Well, I thought it warranted a cartoon, even though I’m probably the only cartoonist who bothered with this story:

Please note…

This website contains satirical commentaries of current events going back several decades. Some readers may not share this sense of humour nor the opinions expressed by the artist. To understand editorial cartoons it is important to understand their effectiveness as a counterweight to power. It is presumed readers approach satire with a broad minded foundation and healthy knowledge of objective facts of the subjects depicted.
