Communism doesn't work? Shocking state of $29m government-run supermarket in KC

[Jonathan Whatley]

In my hometown Toronto, a consistently great place to go for groceries is St. Lawrence Market. The municipal government has owned the marketplace since 1803, renting out stalls to small-business vendors. It now occupies two buildings open six days a week.

Meanwhile, grocery stores buy much of their produce at the Ontario Food Terminal, a giant wholesale-only marketplace owned by the provincial government since 1954.
