It says areas of interest include any instances where property controls have prevented domestic or international grocers or food retailers from opening a store in Canada. It is also interested in any instances where property controls have restricted the operations of a food retailer as well as the benefits and drawbacks of property controls for food retailers, landowners or landlords.
