      Sometimes its the only option for a supermarket in a small community (see: Alaska). Smithers has 5300 people, I doubt there’s anything but the Safeway.

      Oh, it’s not the same Safeway anymore. wikipedia says: Safeway (also referred to as Canada Safeway) is a Canadian supermarket chain that operates 135 full-service locations, mostly in the country’s Western provinces. It was established in 1929 as a subsidiary of the American Safeway chain before being sold in 2013 to Sobeys, a division of the conglomerate Empire Company and Canada’s second-largest supermarket chain.

      ed: you asked and I answered before scrolling to see the other “safeway, the american grocery chain?” thread lol
