Karma Co-Op has quietly led the way as one of Toronto's most progressive grocers for more than 30 years. Located off an alleyway at 739 Palmerston, this little co-operative that could has been stocking local, organic and fair trade products since its inception. And re-usable bags? They've been doing that before current Loblaws Executive Chairman Galen Weston Jr. was born.

Watch my interview with Karma Co-Op General Manager Justin McNabb below:

I don't know if I can say this constructively, but regardless I think it should be said...I hate these videos. I can't watch them at work and don't really have the patience to sit and watch even if I could. I appreciate what you're trying to do, but it's not working with these videos...

Thanks for the feedback. Don't worry, you're not alone. While some people have said they like them, plenty more have commented that they're not up to our standard.

Expect them to either improve or be discontinued.

Thanks for the information. I had no idea this project exists. I checked their website and definitely going to check this place.
