For decades, there has been tension between Native American fishermen and non-native fishermen over the fishing rights on Mille Lacs Lake. This tension has increased, particularly because of the sustainability and quality of Mille Lacs Lake, and the Supreme Court’s ruling in Minnesota against Mille Lacs Band of Chippewa Indians. The Court claimed that the Chippewa Indians retained their rights to hunt and fish on ceded lands as established by the 1837 Treaty of St. Peters. Usufruct rights are rights of enjoyment to another’s property allowing the holder to generate income from the property without obtaining ownership. This right to hunt and fish on ceded lands is further protected from state regulation by the 1837 Treaty of St. Peters.

Although the Loblaw has majority market share holds, the company faces intense competition from many types of grocers such as Sobeys Inc., Metro Inc., Walmart; and many types of non-traditional competitors, such as drug stores, warehouse clubs and specialty stores (organics & ethnics). High rivalry intensity makes an industry more competitive and potentially decrease profit margins. Entry Barriers: As there are fierce rivalry between competitors, the barriers to entry in the Canadian grocery market is high. The large food retailers account for the majority of the market revenue in Canada. Thus, smaller interdependent retailers can’t really compete with such-alike Loblaw or Sobeys or Walmart.
Standard Oil had a good relationship with the railroad industry in the late 19 and early 20th century. Standard oil was trying to gain control of the railroad companies so they could get the most out of their money. Their goal was to make max profit out of everything they were getting. They used vertical integration or the combination of one or two stages of production, that started as two separate companies. Standard oil did this by taking control of the railroads, so they didn’t have to pay for shipping cost, making them more money in the end.
Virginia General Assembly in 1988 enacted “The Chesapeake Bay Preservation Act (Bay Act)” as a pivotal component of Virginia 's non-point source management program. The Chesapeake Bay Preservation Act led to the development of land use regulations which was adopted in 1989 and were amended in 1991, 2001 and in 2012 as part of the Integration Bill The Bay Act program is designed to improve water quality in the Chesapeake Bay and other waters of the State by necessitating the use of operational land management and land use planning. At the core of the Bay Act is the notion that land can be used and industrialized to curtail adverse impacts on water quality. The first sentence of the Bay Act serves as a theme for the whole decree: "Healthy state and local economies and a healthy Chesapeake Bay are integrally related; balanced economic development and water quality protection are not mutually exclusive." Virginia aimed the Bay Act to improve water quality and still allow sensible development to continue.
Trader Joe’s is a small, American grocery store chain that would benefit from expanding internationally into the Canadian market.

This paper will outline why Trader Joe’s is a good retailer for international expansion, why Canada mixes well with their business strategy as a country to expand to, the strategic plan Trader Joes should engage in during expansion, and five strategic recommendations that lead to Trader Joe’s advantages in
Metro has had an eye on merge and acquisition upon combination in the retail sector, such as Loblaw's invest in of Shoppers Drug Mart in 2013, as well as the appearance of new rivals, such as Amazon and Walmart.

Metro runs grocery stores under a few banners, such as Metro, Metro Plus, Super C and Food Basics, as well as more than 250 drugstores, own by the Brunet, Metro Pharmacy and Drug Basics banners.
Frank Rudd and his wife Lisa usually never paid much attention to the commercials as they watched Law and Order reruns every night of the week. They were so used to the rotation of the same seven commercials that it caught them both off guard whenever a new one was thrown into the mix. One this night, one particular commercial caught both of their attentions almost instantly. The commercial starts with a well-groomed man sitting in some sort of laboratory and soft island music playing in the background—an unlikely combination.
