* Tool Guy in Courtenay, B.C., writes "It's true that Home Depot is not exactly a shining example of local Canadian enterprise selling locally-made Canadian products, but as they do seem to be here to stay (for now at least), there are some good things which can be said about Home Depot..."
* Delaminated in Comox Valley, B.C. , writes "As an update to my earlier comments regarding Home Depot's false advertising of "exterior grade" plywood, I was interested to see that the Courtenay branch of Home Depot has finally taken down its "Exterior Grade Plywood" signs..."
* Delaminated in the Comox Valley, B.C., writes "In 30 years of building and renovating homes across Canada, I have never found a more blatant example of product grade depreciation and misleading labelling as I have with the plywood promoted and stamped as "Exterior Grade", sold by Home Depot..."

Most Recent Walmart Reviews & Ratings:
* Air Quality Patrol in Courteny, B.C., writes "With the nicer weather these days, I have noticed something very disturbing in the Walmart store which I had put off earlier to simply being overdressed in the winter time. Lately, whenever I step into the local Walmart, the air quality, or lack thereof, causes me to feel very uncomfortable. It's so stuffy and hot, and UNFRESH, in the store that I have found myself racing around to get what I "need", and get out of there as fast as possible..."
* I Miss REAL LOCAL Businesses in Courtenay, B.C., writes "It never ceases to amaze me how so many consumers who have accepted big box importers like Walmart as the defacto ONLY choice for goods and services, don't factor in the whole picture! "Lowest price" seems to be the greatest, most common excuse for shopping at this largest business on the planet..."
* My Time Is Worthless at Walmart in Courtenay, B.C., writes "Am I the only one who gets the impression that my time is worth absolutely nothing at Walmart? Just because Walmart has mastered the subordination of third-world labour and skirted around environmental responsibilities by dealing with manufacturers who pollute without eco checks and balances, that is no excuse for treating their customers with the same contempt..."
* Incensed Canadian on Vancouver Island, B.C., writes "The audacity and semantic sneakiness of Walmart does not seem to respect any bounds or limits, as demonstrated by a huge poster they have at the front of the store stating "Canadian Made and Proud of It"! When I first saw this, I could not believe they DARED promote what this "Canadian Made" proclamation IMPLIED..."
